As Director of QA & Testing Services and Testing Center of Excellence (TCoE) at Aventra Group, I lead strategic initiatives to enhance software quality and ensure robust delivery processes across the organization. With extensive experience in SOWs, RFPs/RFAs, and customer interaction, I excel in translating business requirements into actionable quality assurance strategies.I oversee the full Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC), developing and implementing comprehensive test plans, strategies, and automation frameworks. My role involves managing resources effectively to optimize project outcomes, utilizing Agile methodologies to enhance flexibility and responsiveness to project demands. I also prioritize performance testing to ensure high-quality, scalable solutions.Focused on aligning QA practices with organizational goals, I’m committed to driving innovation and efficiency within testing operations to deliver exceptional value to clients.

•Led a high-performing QA team of professionals, fostering a collaborative environment that achieved an increase in team productivity. •Successfully implemented Agile methodologies in a geographically dispersed team, overcoming time zone differences and cultural communication challenges. This resulted in aligning testing timelines with Agile processes and reducing development delays. •Led the team in delivering high-quality software releases on time and within budget through comprehensive testing strategies encompassing functional, automation, performance, and regression testing. Conducted bi-weekly one-on-one meetings to proactively address resource concerns and ensure team member growth.•Proactive collaboration with product and development teams ensured well-defined test objectives, scope, and timelines, reducing rework by 30%. This resulted in the development of comprehensive test plans that achieved functional and non-functional requirement coverage, leading to a reduction in post-release defects. •I implemented a hybrid framework (e.g., BDD, TDD and POM) that increased test coverage and reduced manual testing redundancy across each release. This approach not only optimized automation for GUI, and APIs but also fostered improved communication and collaboration between QA and development teams, leading to a reduction in defects. •Spearheaded the development and implementation of a comprehensive QA strategy. This strategy encompassed test plans, methodologies, and best practices, leading to a reduction in post-release defects and an increase in customer satisfaction. I played a key role in defining clear testing and acceptance strategies with established benchmarks, resulting in improvement in first-pass release success rates. •Leveraged key quality metrics to track QA team performance and product quality. I provided actionable insights to senior management and stakeholders through regular status updates on QA activities, bugs, and test results.
