What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead QA automation efforts, integrate testing into CI/CD, work with strong technical teams, and grow in DevOps-driven testing practices.

I am a Senior QA Consultant and Implementation Specialist with 5+ years of hands-on experience in manual and automation testing across ERP, fintech, and billing domains. I have worked extensively in Agile environments and contributed to SDLC and STLC processes.

My technical strengths include building automation frameworks with Selenium (Java, TestNG), API testing with Postman and Python (Pytest), and CI/CD using Jenkins, CircleCI and GitHub. I have implemented cross-browser testing, database validation with SQL, and achieved high API test coverage in projects.

I also bring DevOps-related knowledge — AWS fundamentals (IAM, S3, EC2, VPC), Terraform, Ansible, and build tools like Maven — and experience integrating automated tests into pipelines for faster feedback. I have led implementation and client onboarding efforts, produced test strategies, and improved environment setup consistency by streamlining frameworks.

I communicate effectively with stakeholders, manage defect lifecycle via JIRA, design traceability matrices, and mentor teams through requirement gathering, UAT support, and regular scrum participation. I am eager to apply my QA, automation, and DevOps skills to deliver reliable, high-quality software solutions.
