I'm a Software Engineer at Microsoft delivering quality assurance across Microsoft Teams, UHRS, and WebXT. My journey from vendor QA to full-time Software Engineer represents one of the fastest role transitions in my organization. As a vendor QA specialist, I tested 100+ Microsoft Teams apps, identifying 450+ accepted bugs that drove critical improvements in product quality. This performance earned me the fastest vendor-to-FTE conversion, where I now balance manual and automation testing responsibilities. I specialize in both manual QA and automation engineering, managing multiple projects across Teams, UHRS, and WebXT platforms. My work encompasses functional, regression, and smoke testing across Microsoft Teams channels, chat, and meetings. I conduct end-to-end quality assurance for UHRS and WebXT platforms, ensuring reliability and performance. As a self-taught automation engineer, I've built test frameworks using WebDriverIO, JavaScript, and TypeScript. I create efficient, maintainable automation scripts for Microsoft Teams ecosystem validation and platform testing. My automation strategies accelerate testing cycles while maintaining comprehensive coverage. I leverage Azure DevOps, Azure Boards, and Azure Pipelines for CI/CD integration, bug tracking, and test suite management. I implement QA best practices across product teams, promoting a culture of quality. Beyond technical work, I serve as a liaison between QA teams, project managers, and technical leads. I've acted as interim project manager, creating project plans and executive reports. My collaborative approach helped expand our team from 3 to 7+ members. I'm passionate about mentorship, guiding junior engineers in automation methodologies and testing strategies through knowledge-sharing sessions and documentation. I'm eager to connect with QA professionals and automation enthusiasts to discuss testing strategies and opportunities in quality assurance.

During my tenure as an Engineering Trainee in the Early Career Program, I completed a comprehensive training program that combined classroom and on-the-job training, laying a solid foundation in quality assurance (QA) and software engineering principles. This program offered exposure to various IT and engineering topics, as well as practical QA techniques. Classroom Training: Mastered software quality assurance methodologies such as test case design, planning, and execution. Learned essential web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and web development principles. Developed proficiency in Selenium for automated web application testing, boosting efficiency and accuracy. Acquired knowledge in software development life cycle (SDLC), agile methodologies, and QA best practices. Studied IT subjects like networking, databases, and data structures for efficient testing processes. On-Job Training: Applied classroom knowledge in real-world QA projects, working alongside experienced professionals. Conducted manual and automated testing, documenting bugs and identifying areas for improvement. Collaborated with cross-functional teams to enhance product quality and user experience. Participated in behavioral training to improve teamwork, communication, and problem-solving skills. Overall, my Early Career Program experience provided a strong foundation in QA and web development, preparing me for a successful career in QA roles. My training and practical experience equip me to contribute to high-quality software development and continuous improvement.
