With over 17 years of experience in software engineering and testing, I am currently the Test Manager at IXUP Limited, a secure data collaboration platform that enables data sharing and analytics across multiple sources. I hold the NV1 security clearance, which is required for working on sensitive government projects. As the Test Manager, I am responsible for leading the quality assurance and test automation of the API, UI, and performance aspects of the IXUP platform, using tools and technologies such as Java, Selenium, Cucumber, Cypress, Gatling, Scala, and AWS. I also manage the test environment, the resource allocation, the budget, and the stakeholder communication. I have successfully delivered quality and performance testing for projects such as the National Self Exclusion Register and the BetStop website. My core competencies include building and mentoring teams, defining and aligning quality standards and metrics, developing and executing test automation frameworks, and ensuring customer satisfaction and delivery excellence. I have extensive experience in working with various web and mobile applications, distributed cloud architectures, storage systems, and virtualization technologies. I am also a certified Scrum Master, an EMC Certified Storage Professional, and a Six Sigma Green Belt. I am passionate about driving quality and performance across the software development life cycle, and I enjoy collaborating and building relationships with different teams and stakeholders. I am always eager to learn new skills and technologies, and to apply them to solve complex problems and deliver value to the customers. I am looking for opportunities to leverage my expertise and experience in quality assurance and test automation, and to contribute to the success and growth of innovative and customer-focused organizations.
