AustraliaWhat I'm looking for
I am a QA lead with 14 years of hands-on experience across performance, functional and automation testing for global clients. I have led teams and driven end-to-end delivery across domains including ERP/SAP, cloud migrations, and enterprise applications.
I specialize in non-functional testing, performance tuning and automation using tools such as JMeter, LoadRunner, Selenium, Dynatrace and AppDynamics, and I have performed SAP ECC to S/4HANA testing and server monitoring.
I bring practical experience with cloud monitoring and platforms (AWS CloudWatch), database testing and ETL/data-migration validation using SQL, UNIX, DB2 and Oracle. I have repeatedly identified bottlenecks and recommended optimizations in production performance.
I pursue continual learning in cloud computing, data analytics and test automation, and I aim to apply this mix of technical depth and leadership to deliver reliable, measurable quality outcomes.
