## What I'm looking for

```text
I’m seeking a Senior QA role where I can apply my quality assurance and developer experience, along with the automation skills I’ve developed during my sabbatical.
```

## About

```text
At Cognizant Technology Solution, I tested Telstra’s Retail Order Management System across forward and reverse logistics for dealer and enterprise devices. I validated APIs with Postman and Swagger and investigated production defects using Splunk and PCF.

I also worked on Oracle Retail Merchandising System modules and managed defect lifecycles with JIRA and ServiceNow. I received the “KUDOS” Award for my work on complex retail workflows.

At Cognizant Technology Solution, I developed messaging and data interfaces for BNY Mellon, including ESQL flows and IBM WTX maps for SWIFT message transformation. During my planned sabbatical, I’ve focused on automation upskilling and built personal projects using Selenium WebDriver, Java, Cucumber, TestNG, and the Page Object Model; I’m now seeking a Senior QA role.
