Shiv Shankar — Business Development Executive
I work with QA and DevOps leaders in Enterprise and MM orgs who want to reduce manual testing, accelerate release velocity, and integrate automation seamlessly into CI/CD. I’ve seen how teams move from 10% to 90% automation coverage using a pragmatic approach - not complexity. Katalon supports organizations in optimizing their quality assurance processes through AI-led test automation, and as part of the EU Sales team for over 2 years, we deliver tailored solutions to address complex software testing challenges. With a strong foundation in sales strategy and automation tools, the focus is on building impactful partnerships that drive market adoption and efficiency. Previously, contributions to Freshworks’ public sector vertical in ANZ involved expanding key accounts and developing new business opportunities, which honed expertise in strategic sales planning, account retention, and vertical growth. At Katalon, the mission remains clear: enabling seamless software quality assurance by empowering teams with innovative, scalable automation strategies.
