I’m a Quality Engineering Lead with 14+ years of experience owning quality for complex enterprise platforms across US Mortgage, Insurance, Airlines, and eLearning (LMS) domains. Developed a Community Testcase Prompt Generator app --> https://testcasepromptgen.netlify.app/ Currently leading quality initiatives at TCS, I specialize in API-driven and data-intensive systems, with hands-on experience validating REST/SOAP services, enterprise integrations, and large-scale data platforms. My work spans API testing, data pipeline validation, ETL testing, and cloud migration programs, ensuring reliability, data integrity, and production readiness. I operate at the intersection of hands-on quality engineering and team leadership — defining risk-based test strategies, mentoring offshore teams, driving sprint quality, and partnering closely with product owners and architects to reduce delivery risk rather than just detect defects. I’m a Google Cloud Generative AI Leader–certified professional and actively apply AI-assisted testing techniques for test scenario expansion, exploratory testing, defect analysis, and QA productivity improvement, while maintaining strong enterprise governance and quality standards. I’m exploring senior Quality Engineering / Platform QA leadership roles, including remote opportunities, where quality, data integrity, and scalable system reliability are business-critical. 📍 Based in Hyderabad | Open to remote and hybrid senior QE / QA leadership roles
