QA Lead Track | Senior QA Engineer | SaaS, Live Events & Video Platforms | API, Accessibility & Release Testing | Playwright | ISTQB Certified

About

ISTQB-certified Senior QA Engineer with 8+ years of experience delivering quality across SaaS, live-event platforms, logistics (TMS/WMS), fintech, and enterprise applications. I specialize in end-to-end quality ownership including test strategy, release readiness, regression planning, API validation, accessibility testing (WCAG), production sign-offs, and risk-based testing. Throughout my career, I have authored 500+ test cases, led release validation for business-critical customer-facing features, built API validation frameworks using Postman and Swagger, and partnered closely with Product, Engineering, Design, and SRE teams to deliver reliable user experiences. My recent work includes real-time chat systems, live-event platforms, video streaming workflows, teleprompter solutions, network resilience testing, and large-scale SaaS product releases. While primarily a manual QA professional, I leverage Playwright automation strategically to improve regression efficiency and accelerate release cycles. Areas of expertise: • Test Strategy & Planning • Functional, Regression & Integration Testing • API Testing (Postman, Swagger) • Accessibility Testing (WCAG) • Release Readiness & Go-Live Validation • Defect Management & RCA • SQL Validation • Agile/Scrum Delivery • Cross-functional Leadership & Mentoring
