What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, growth-oriented QA role where I can mentor testers, improve processes, and deliver high-quality software with measurable impact.

I am a senior quality assurance engineer with over 13 years of experience in manual and automation testing, SDLC processes, and converting data into actionable improvements. I have a proven record of identifying and reproducing issues—helping recreate 400+ client problems—and delivering defect-reduction and efficiency gains across multiple enterprise projects.

I consistently collaborate with cross-functional teams to define acceptance criteria, design test plans, and mentor testers in REST API testing and test case design. My contributions have reduced defect costs, improved user experience, accelerated product delivery, and increased team efficiency through environment and process improvements.
