What I'm looking for

I am seeking opportunities that allow me to leverage my extensive QA experience while fostering team growth and enhancing software quality.

With nearly 18 years of experience in Software Quality Assurance, I have honed my skills in implementing thorough testing strategies and optimizing processes within the technology and finance sectors. My journey has been marked by a commitment to excellence, leading quality assurance initiatives as the Assistant Vice President at Kredent InfoEdge, where I managed critical projects and cultivated a diverse skill set in various testing methodologies.

Throughout my career, I have successfully reduced defect rates and improved customer satisfaction scores by initiating and executing quality assurance processes. My expertise in leveraging sophisticated testing tools like Selenium and JMeter has allowed me to optimize testing workflows and elevate software quality standards. I take pride in mentoring junior QA professionals, fostering a skilled and cohesive team that consistently meets project deadlines and quality standards.
