Senior QA Analyst — Web · Mobile · Mainframe · ETL

I turn requirements into traceable test cases and ship reports clients actually act on. 10+ years finding what breaks before your users do — across payments, healthcare, and matrimony platforms, in regulated and high-stakes environments.

QA specialist with over 10 years of experience running structured test processes across web, mobile, mainframe, and ETL systems — including several years in regulated environments (BFSI payments, UK healthcare). Comfortable translating requirements into traceable test cases, and running manual, regression, integration, system, and acceptance testing with full defect traceability (RTM, JIRA, HP ALM).

Coordinated test activities across releases, worked closely with development, project management, and business teams, and led a small QA team. I also use AI-assisted tools (Gemini, ChatGPT, Kai SDLC) to speed up test analysis and documentation without cutting corners on coverage.
