About

As a Test Automation Consultant with over 13 years of end-to-end experience in software quality assurance, I specialise in designing intelligent, scalable, and reusable automation frameworks that strengthen delivery confidence for enterprise-grade web, mobile, and API platforms. My career has evolved through hands-on engineering, framework innovation, and quality leadership, partnering with global retailers, education leaders, and digital commerce brands to embed quality into every stage of product development. In my recent roles, I have led QA transformation programs for large-scale mobile and web applications across UK-based clients such as Selfridges and Waitrose & Partners, shaping modern test strategies, building hybrid frameworks with Playwright, Appium, WebDriverIO, and Cucumber BDD, and enabling true shift-left testing through seamless CI/CD integration. The result includes more than 600 automated functional tests, over 80 integrated tests, and measurable improvements in release velocity, defect detection, and customer experience. Recognized with awards such as Best Testing Team of the Year 2023 and Mission Impossible Award for innovation in mocking and automation design, I am passionate about turning complex, high-risk test environments into efficient, insight-driven quality ecosystems. My frameworks continue to serve enterprise QA teams, enabling faster, data-driven decision-making through dashboards, KPIs, and automation metrics embedded in release governance. Beyond core delivery, I focus on mentoring teams to transition from traditional testers to proactive Quality Engineers, fostering ownership, technical fluency, and continuous improvement mindsets. I actively explore AI-assisted testing, GenAI tools, and cloud-native quality platforms including Virtuoso QA, UIPath, and AWS AI Practitioner to help organizations modernize their assurance landscape and prepare for the next generation of intelligent testing.
