I’m a Senior Software Engineer in Test with 5+ years of experience across platforms and AI-driven products. I lead test strategy from scratch, defining risks and shipping with confidence. I own quality E2E across classic UI, APIs, and AI systems. I design test plans for AI chat and conversational workflows, test intent detection, tool execution, retries and final system state. I build automated E2E tests for AI workflows, use LLM judges with clear rubrics to score accuracy, tone, safety and instruction adherence, and I lead swarm test planning to align AI engineers, PMs and designers on quality before release.
