Summary

With a solid five-year tenure in the IT industry, I bring a wealth of experience to the table as a seasoned tester. My proficiency is particularly notable in mobile testing, with a specialized focus on iOS platforms. My career has seen me delve into the intricacies of the insurance sector for two years, followed by a deep dive into the gaming industry for three years, where I honed my expertise in casino slot machine games testing.

I am well-versed in utilizing Jira, a leading defect tracking tool, which complements my comprehensive skill set in UI testing, Acceptance testing, System testing, System integration testing, and Regression Testing. My adeptness extends to Defect Reporting and a thorough understanding of both Testing Life Cycle and Defect Life Cycle activities.

My ability to effectively collaborate with onsite development teams stems from my excellent communication and interpersonal skills. I am equally comfortable working independently or as an integral part of a team, ensuring that I can adapt to any project environment to deliver exceptional results.
