Introduction
Test Lead with 11 years of experience across fintech, transport, and enterprise software. ISTQB certified. I own test quality end-to-end — from requirements analysis and test strategy design, through hands-on execution, to cross-team delivery assurance. I have led QA teams, acted as the single technical and functional point of contact between development and all test teams, and driven Agile quality practices (DOD/DOR, 3 Amigos sessions, sprint refinements) on high-stakes platforms.
