Senior Consultant QA at JK Tech

About

I believe great software quality is built long before a product reaches production. It starts with understanding business requirements, anticipating risks, designing meaningful test scenarios, and creating reliable validation processes that help teams release with confidence. With 8+ years of professional experience across software quality assurance, test automation, and operations, I bring a quality-first mindset to testing complex applications across web, mobile, IoT, fleet management, travel commerce, and enterprise data environments. My expertise spans Playwright with TypeScript, Selenium WebDriver, manual and automation testing, API validation, database testing, ETL and data warehouse validation, UAT, and regression testing. I work across the testing lifecycle; from requirement analysis and test planning to defect management, release validation, and production readiness. Some of the impact I have delivered: ✅ Contributed to automating 300+ business-critical test scenarios. ✅ Improved test coverage by 30% through structured automation and scenario selection. ✅ Reduced regression testing time by 40% through automation-driven testing practices. ✅ Achieved a reported 95% defect detection rate during UAT. ✅ Managed and validated 100+ test scenarios, contributing to zero critical defects at release within the scenarios under management. At JK Tech, I work with Product Owners, developers, and cross-functional stakeholders to clarify requirements, assess quality risks, manage defects, and support release decisions. My earlier experience at Carpro Systems strengthened my expertise in browser automation, reusable regression assets, and testing fleet and rental management applications. I also bring a broader operational perspective from my earlier roles at Amdocs and SKF India, where customer coordination, reporting, process discipline, and operational accuracy were important parts of my work. I value continuous learning, clear communication, practical problem-solving, and collaboration. My goal is to make testing more efficient, improve product reliability, and help engineering teams deliver software that meets business expectations. Core expertise: Playwright | TypeScript | Selenium WebDriver | QA Automation | Manual Testing | API Testing | Test Strategy | Regression Testing | UAT | MSSQL | ETL Testing | Defect Management | Agile/Scrum | CI/CD Workflows I welcome opportunities to connect with QA leaders, engineering teams, recruiters, and professionals passionate about software quality and automation.
