About

Lead QA Engineer with 7+ years of experience driving quality excellence across fast-scaling tech startups including Powerplay, Meesho, and Dunzo. I specialize in API automation, release management, and QA team leadership, with a proven ability to build scalable test frameworks and high-performing QA functions from the ground up. At Powerplay, I built the entire QA function from scratch, leading a team of engineers and establishing automation-first practices that improved release quality by 45% and reduced regression cycles by 60%. My approach blends technical depth (API, UI, CI/CD) with strategic process optimization (Six Sigma principles) to deliver faster, more stable releases. Beyond hands-on testing, I focus on mentorship, documentation, and continuous improvement, ensuring every QA initiative translates directly into product stability, velocity, and user satisfaction. I thrive in environments where quality engineering meets innovation โ€” helping teams release confidently, scale sustainably, and build products users truly trust.
