What I'm looking for
I am a Quality Engineer with over 2 years of experience in manual and automation testing, specializing in the pharmaceutical domain. My role at Accenture involved developing and executing more than 100 automated and manual test scenarios, significantly improving test coverage by 20%. I ensured compliance with stringent pharmaceutical regulations while working on Pfizer’s Kerala MAPP platform, achieving a 99% compliance rate through rigorous end-to-end and integration testing.
My commitment to quality is reflected in my ability to reduce defect resolution time by 30% through the integration of JIRA for real-time tracking. I also introduced a checklist-based peer review process that improved defect detection by 25%, enhancing overall test efficiency. My experience in Agile methodologies has allowed me to actively participate in sprint planning and retrospectives, ensuring timely delivery and quality assurance.
In addition to my technical skills, I have authored comprehensive documentation in Confluence, which has standardized testing workflows and reduced onboarding time for new QA team members by 15%. I am currently pursuing a Master’s in Management to further strengthen my business and analytical acumen for broader QA leadership roles.
