About

Quality is a system, not a final step

I'm an SQA Team Lead with ~7 years of experience making software hold up under real use — across web, mobile, games, ERP and enterprise applications. My work has covered FinTech, EdTech, NGO, ERP, Logistics, Ride-Sharing and Enterprise products for both local and international clients.

Day to day I lead and mentor QA engineers, own test strategy and process design, and keep quality signals readable for the people who make release decisions. I lean hard on AI-assisted workflows — ChatGPT, Claude Code, Copilot and MCP-enabled environments — to cut manual effort out of test planning, documentation and defect analysis.

As Product Coordinator of QA Brains, a global QA community, I've helped grow the platform to 190K+ monthly visitors and 94K+ active users through product initiatives, webinars and educational programs.

  • QA Leadership

    Team mentoring, review gates, status reporting, and test summary reports stakeholders actually read.

  • Test Strategy

    Risk-based planning, coverage design, and process improvements aligned to delivery goals.

  • AI-assisted QA

    Prompt engineering, MCP server configuration, and LLM-driven test and documentation workflows.

  • Community Building

    Webinars, podcasts and knowledge sessions that lift the wider QA profession.

What I do

Where I make the difference

  • QA leadership & mentoring

    Lead QA engineers across parallel projects, run status meetings, and keep defects tracked from log to closure.

  • Test strategy & planning

    Test strategies, plans, checklists and suites built from requirements analysis, risk and dependency mapping.

  • AI-assisted testing

    LLM-generated test cases, automation scripts and defect analysis inside MCP-enabled AI environments.

  • Automation

    Playwright for web and Maestro for mobile — guided, reviewed, and wired into repeatable runs.

  • Game testing

    Casual and multiplayer titles on Android and iOS: gameplay bugs, desync, performance and device stability.

  • Performance & API

    JMeter load profiles and Postman contract checks with explicit pass/fail thresholds.
