Available to hire
I am a results-driven software test professional with a proven ability to deliver high-quality testing solutions across manual, functional, integration, and automation domains in complex, multi-industry environments.
I enjoy shaping test strategy, translating complex business needs into robust artefacts, and mentoring testing teams to achieve quality goals. My experience spans RPA validations (UiPath and Leapwork), web/API/ETL testing, and large-scale program delivery, enabling stable bot deployments and faster release cycles while reducing post-release defects.
