What I'm looking for

I’m seeking 100% remote QA Lead roles with international product companies, where I can own quality strategy, lead QA teams, and deliver end-to-end manual, API, database, and Android/iOS testing with strong release sign-off.

I’m a QA Lead with 8 years of experience delivering quality across Insurance, EdTech, and Mobile domains. I’ve led end-to-end quality assurance and owned test strategy, release planning, and final sign-off across web and mobile releases—so I ensure zero critical defects reach production.

I design and execute API test suites in Postman, validate endpoint behaviour, response schemas, authentication flows, and data integrity, and run database testing (SQL) to confirm backend accuracy across release cycles. I also execute real-device and virtual Android/iOS testing using Perfecto and xFramium, and I bring rare BFSI credibility through Allstate India and the Life360 SDK; I’ve mentored 10-person QA teams with sprint planning, defect triage, stakeholder reporting, and quality metrics.
