I am a dynamic and results-driven Senior Software Engineer with 12+ years of experience in software testing across ride-hailing, banking, finance, tech education, and IoT. I specialize in web, mobile, and API testing, with proficiency in both automation and manual testing; I’ve built automation frameworks from scratch to scale coverage and reduce manual effort. I excel at automation, leadership, and stakeholder collaboration, and I’m quick to learn new languages and technologies. I use AI tools to improve and optimize deliverables daily, and I’ve co-led internal AI initiatives to generate test cases and streamline authoring. I thrive in cross-functional environments and enjoy turning complex requirements into robust, automated tests that protect product quality while accelerating delivery.
