What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles where I can lead test automation and data-quality efforts, build CI/CD-enabled frameworks, mentor teams, and work on large-scale data pipeline validation in an Agile environment.

I am a Senior Data Test Engineer with 15+ years in QA, test automation, and Agile delivery, focused on ensuring data integrity across complex pipelines. I have designed automation frameworks, implemented CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins, and validated data workflows using Kafka, AWS, RDS, Snowflake and SQL.

I have led cross-functional teams and Agile squads, delivered reusable automation components and frameworks (Cucumber BDD, Craft-lite), and driven end-to-end testing and reconciliation for large-scale digital transformation projects. I coach junior engineers, adopt shift-left practices, and continually pursue skills in emerging technologies like AI and RPA.
