At Dell Technologies, I design and scale automation for enterprise microservices, covering approximately 3,000 API and 400+ UI tests. I reduced nightly and release regression runtime by more than 70%, from about 1 hour 40 minutes to under 30 minutes.

I own end-to-end quality across exploratory validation, regression, release verification, production issue investigation, and business-rule review. By introducing Shift-Left API testing, I cut developer feedback time from 1–2 days to under an hour.

Previously at Luxoft, I automated backend regression for a major global banking client and investigated distributed-system failures through logs and database validation. At Belitsoft and LOVATA, I built QA practices, automation coverage, release processes, and onboarding standards while leading, hiring, and mentoring QA engineers.

I've spent 9+ years across AI infrastructure, investment banking, InsurTech, e-commerce, mobile applications, APIs, backend systems, and UI testing. I enjoy turning unclear requirements and legacy behavior into reliable, maintainable quality coverage.
