Senior QA Engineer specializing in IAM, VR/AR, telecom, and enterprise testing.
What I'm looking for
I am a Senior QA Engineer with 10+ years of experience delivering manual and automated testing across IAM, VR/AR, telecom, and enterprise applications. I design test strategies, lead UAT efforts, and drive defect management processes that improve release quality and reduce production issues.
I have hands-on experience with SSO, MFA, provisioning/deprovisioning, directory sync, APIs, devices, and CI/CD release processes, and I use tools like JIRA, Azure DevOps, TestRail, and HP ALM/QC to manage test execution and defects. I mentor testers, standardize test documentation on Wikis, and collaborate closely with engineering, product, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into reliable, scalable test coverage.
My track record includes owning defect triage, creating test plans and test data, executing device and VR/AR test campaigns, and producing test metrics to support go/no-go decisions. I focus on clear communication, cross-team alignment, and continuous improvement to reduce production issues and accelerate delivery.
