I am actively involved in CMMI Level 5 QA practices, contributing to key quality metrics such as: • Defect Removal Efficiency (DRE) • Productivity • Cycle Time • What-If Analysis and continuous process improvement I also collaborate closely with AI/ML teams to validate intelligent features, data analytics, and dashboard accuracy—bridging the gap between testing, business, and advanced technology.
