Mani Rathnam Murugesan — QA Manager
Over the last 11 years as a Senior QA Lead, I’ve learned that delivering flawless software requires a careful balance: you need the technical chops to build the right automation and the leadership skills to guide the people executing it. I consider myself a hands on techie who also genuinely enjoys managing and mentoring teams. Throughout my career, I’ve successfully led quality assurance for over 50 projects, consistently ensuring they go live without any major production issues. My core philosophy is simple: if a task is monotonous, repetitive, or eating up valuable time, it needs to be automated. Recently, I’ve been heavily focused on integrating AI into our QA workflows. By leveraging AI to automate complex and time consuming processes, I’ve been able to save significant resources, optimize project budgets, and free up my team to focus on what matters most- delivering real business value and ensuring maximum test coverage. Whether I’m managing an offshore team of 10+ people or diving into the weeds of a new automation strategy, my end goal is always the same: seamless production releases, zero critical defects, and a process that makes life easier for everyone involved. I'm always open to talking about QA automation, AI process improvements, or how to build high-performing tech teams.
