I lead Agile QA delivery and Scrum teams for complex retail e-commerce releases.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently leading Scrum and QA delivery at Leon's Furniture Ltd. across six retail e-commerce banners, including Leon's, The Brick, Appliance Canada, Furniture.ca, TGS, and Mid-Northern Builder & Retail.
I guide sprint planning, stand-ups, reviews, retrospectives, backlog refinement, UAT, release readiness, and production deployments. I've led high-pressure Black Friday and Boxing Day releases while identifying risks, removing impediments, and keeping cross-functional teams aligned.
My QA work spans end-to-end testing for Gift Registry, search migration, Dropship Portal modernization, and Pick-Up Accessories Online. I build test strategies and plans, validate backend data with SQL, manage defects in JIRA, run regression testing, and support Shopify merchandising and release validation.
Earlier, I delivered functional, smoke, regression, integration, and automation testing at Canadian Tire, Ford Credit Canada, and Punjab National Bank. I'm SAFe Scrum Master and SAFe Practitioner certified, and I bring a practical servant-leadership approach to improving delivery quality.
