Introduction
As a Senior Quality Engineer, I bring a passion for delivering high-quality software and creating scalable, automated solutions that enhance product reliability and user experience. With deep expertise in functional, regression, and system testing, I lead the charge in identifying defects early, advocating for automation, and collaborating cross-functionally to align QA strategy with business goals. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of tools and technologies, including Selenium, Pytest, Postman, AWS, Jira/Xray, and Jenkins, across cloud and microservices-based environments. Whether it's building automation frameworks, mentoring QA teams, or executing complex test cases, I approach every challenge with precision and a mindset focused on continuous improvement. I thrive in Agile teams, actively contributing to sprint planning, stand-ups, and retrospectives to drive collaboration and transparency. Beyond testing, I partner closely with developers, business analysts, DevOps, and stakeholders to ensure quality is embedded throughout the software development lifecycle.

I managed cloud infrastructure components such as AWS S3, SFU, Lambda, and CloudWatch to ensure smooth and efficient test execution. I regularly monitored deployments and provided real-time updates on application health and system performance after releases. Leading a team of QA professionals, I delegated tasks effectively, maintained a clear focus on project milestones, and upheld rigorous quality standards. I worked closely with Developers, Project Managers, Business Analysts, and DevOps teams to ensure our testing strategies were fully aligned with broader project objectives. Juggling multiple QA projects at once, I thrived in a fast-paced Agile environment, consistently delivering timely and high-quality software releases. • Optimised a financial data repository within QA testing environment to ensure data integrity. • Designed and implemented action plans and automated test scripts for functional and regression testing. • Delivered reports on test pipeline performance, functional test execution, and non-regression outcomes. • Built domain knowledge in FinTech to enhance testing accuracy in payment systems, financial data pipelines, and compliance-driven applications.
