About

12 years of QA leadership across mobile, web, APIs, and production AI systems. I have owned release sign-off, built automation frameworks from scratch, scaled QA teams, and tested AI features in production — the kind where "it passed the test" and "it's actually correct" are two different things. The AI testing work I've done recently: — Promptfoo-based framework for prompt regression and red-teaming — LLM response auditor scoring outputs across relevance, completeness, hallucination risk, and safety — Automated pipeline converting PRDs into structured test cases via LLM, zero manual effort All three are live on GitHub. Built from scratch because I wanted to understand these systems well enough to break them. I come from startup environments — joined early, built from nothing, grew with the product. That's where I work best. Fast cycles, high ownership, real stakes. If that sounds like your team, let's connect.

Work experience

SDET at ANAROCK Technology, Feb 2018 - Jul 2025 · 7 yrs 6 mos, Mumbai Area, India, Led AI Bot and Speech-to-Text QA at Anarock — manually tested conversational AI chatbot flows and validated Speech-to-Text outputs used in internal dashboards, identifying failure patterns in transcription accuracy, response coherence, and edge-case handling before production release. Served as release gatekeeper across 7 simultaneous product streams — owning delivery timelines, quality metrics, and go/no-go decisions, achieving zero critical production escapes over the final 2 years of tenure. Designed and scaled API automation frameworks (Rest Assured, Postman) integrated into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins), reducing manual regression effort by ~40% and cutting release cycle time significantly. Led and mentored a QA team of 4–6 engineers — defined the automation roadmap, conducted code reviews on test suites, and drove adoption of shift-left testing practices across Agile sprints. Owned end-to-end QA strategy for PropTech product releases — covering functional, regression, performance, and integration testing across web and backend services.

Test Engineer at Housing.com, Aug 2015 - Feb 2018 · 2 yrs 7 mos, Mumbai, Part of the App Development team at Housing.com — embedded QA engineer responsible for testing Android and iOS apps for one of India's leading PropTech platforms, serving millions of property seekers. Supported a high-velocity release cadence of 2 app releases per month — executing full regression, exploratory, and smoke testing cycles for both Android and iOS builds within tight sprint timelines. Tested new features and critical user flows end-to-end — covering property search, listing views, map integrations, and user account flows across Android and iOS devices and OS versions. Used Google Analytics and crash reporting data to reproduce user-reported bugs and app crashes — improving defect prioritisation by tying bug reports to real user behaviour patterns. Worked in an Agile/Scrum team alongside developers and product managers — participating in sprint planning, daily standups, and release sign-offs as the QA voice in the development cycle.

Software QA Engineer at Mauj Mobile, Feb 2012 - Aug 2015 · 3 yrs 7 mos, Mumbai Metropolitan Region, QA Engineer across 4 consumer mobile products — Mobango AppStore, Bahrain Telecom, AppyStore (Kids), and subscription-based mobile services. Designed and executed test cases for web, mobile, and interface testing — covering black-box, regression, and exploratory testing; logged and tracked defects end-to-end using Bugzilla. Reviewed Business Requirement Specifications to identify gaps pre-development — contributing to early defect detection and reducing rework in later QA cycles. Contributed to content operations and management QA for app stores across Android and WAP platforms — ensuring content accuracy, display integrity, and functional correctness at scale.
