About

PMP-certified QA Project Lead with 15 years of experience driving quality assurance and QA delivery leadership across Banking, Financial Services, Trade Finance, and Regulatory Compliance programs. I lead QA teams of 8-15 members across concurrent engagements, owning test strategy, planning, estimation, and defect governance for high-volume release cycles — typically 300-400 test cases and 250-300+ defects managed per release, on a 2-3 month cadence. My core strength is Trade Finance and Temenos T24 QA: 4+ years testing integration between EP.IX and T24 for Letters of Credit, Guarantees, and Payments, ensuring accurate bidirectional data flow in live banking environments. I also bring regulatory testing depth across AML/KYC, FATCA, CRS, GIR, and CbC reporting. I apply PMP-aligned practices — risk and issue tracking, planning and estimation — to keep QA delivery predictable and stakeholders aligned, partnering closely with business, development, and client teams throughout the release lifecycle. Core areas: QA Leadership & Delivery Management | Test Strategy & Planning | Temenos T24 / Trade Finance | Regulatory & Compliance Testing | Defect Management | Stakeholder Management | Agile & Waterfall | PMP-aligned Risk & Planning Open to QA Manager, QA Lead, Test Manager, and QA Delivery Lead roles in Banking, Financial Services, and Trade Finance.
