QA Technical Lead and test automation expert, scaling enterprise strategies across API, performance, web, and mobile releases.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Tech Lead in Quality Assurance with around 9 years of hands-on IT QA expertise and 15 years of overall experience. I specialize in multi-domain testing—API testing, performance testing with bulk data records, AI-based applications, and security testing—while building automation capabilities that accelerate delivery in Agile and DevOps environments.
I’ve led QA teams at enterprise scale, including directing a team of 10 QA engineers and implementing mentorship and cross-training that increased productivity by 40%, achieving a 100% self-sufficiency rate in automation script development. In my recent role, I architected a scalable Selenium BDD framework (Cucumber), raising automated test coverage from 20% to 85% and cutting manual regression cycles from weeks to hours, while Apache JMeter load-testing improved system response time by 25% under peak traffic.
