I lead AI-enabled quality engineering for enterprise payments and cloud platforms.
What I'm looking for
At TSYS, I lead QA engineers building scalable automation for payment workflows, fraud detection, and PCI DSS compliance validation. I reduced regression cycle time by 35% through AI-enabled automation leadership and streamlined CI/CD practices.
I build cloud-based testing solutions across AWS and manage Azure DevOps pipelines integrated with Docker and Kubernetes. My work spans Python, Java, Selenium, Playwright, Boto3, performance benchmarking, and validation of high-volume transaction systems.
Previously at Wolters Kluwer and Cybage Software, I automated finance, taxation, eCommerce, and eLearning platforms, increased automation coverage from 60% to 85%, and reduced release defects by 25%. I enjoy mentoring engineers, strengthening quality governance, and partnering across product and engineering teams to prevent defects early.
