At Momentum Group, I designed data-driven UI automation frameworks from scratch using Katalon Studio and TestComplete. I also developed API testing solutions with Postman and Karate BDD, integrating automated collections into GitLab CI pipelines via Newman.

Across banking, telecom, insurance, and retail, I’ve tested critical workflows including trade finance and subscriber services. I’ve also led STLC improvements, supported release readiness with API load testing, and mentored junior QA team members.
