14+ years transforming software quality across Automotive AI, FinTech, Rail Safety & Telecom
I don't just write tests — I build the infrastructure that makes quality inevitable.
At Cerence (Automotive AI), I architect end-to-end QA systems for LLM-based in-vehicle assistants shipped to major global OEMs. Before that: rail safety automation at Siemens, capital markets platforms at Morgan Stanley via Capgemini, and telecom operations at Vodafone via TCS.

Solution Architect · Product Owner · Lead Developer
Designed and built a proprietary test automation framework from scratch, now used as the foundational QA infrastructure across Cerence's OEM delivery pipeline. Replaced fragmented manual processes with a unified, scalable engine — cutting regression cycles and driving consistent quality gates.
Test Lead & Manager
Test strategy and execution lead for an LLM-powered (ChatGPT-based) in-car assistant — one of the most complex QA domains in the automotive industry today. Managed multi-OEM delivery with AI response evaluation, safety-critical regression, and cross-functional stakeholder alignment.
Test Professional · Siemens Technology
Migrated manual test suites to automated coverage for a safety-critical rail signalling system. Automated artifact creation, regression runs, and release processes — driving measurable reduction in manual overhead with zero compromise on traceability.
