Test Strategy & Roadmap: Define and implement the long-term QE roadmap for Digital Banking, aligning it with the overall Engineering strategy.
Efficiency & Quality Initiatives:



Drive organization-wide quality initiatives focused on Efficiency Gains, Shift-Left testing, and Cost Optimization.
Metrics & Reporting: Establish and govern KPIs/SLAs. Provide executive-level reports and actionable insights using JIRA, Zephyr, and custom dashboards.
Process Engineering: Define and refine QE processes in a SAFe Agile setting to improve velocity without compromising banking security.
BFSI Knowledge: Provide leadership across complex banking domains (UPI, Payments, Wallets, Onboarding, Loans, and Investments).
