      Quality Engineering Manager

      As an Engineering Manager at Derivco Sports in London, I led transformative QA initiatives and optimized Release Management & QA processes. I successfully transitioned our testing framework from Selenium to Playwright, reducing migration time by over 50%, and moved our CI/CD pipeline to Azure DevOps from TeamCity, improving release cycles and increasing deployment success rates by 5%. I developed an in-house testing tool with ASP.Net Core WebApi and Azure tables, reducing the Change Failure Rate by 12%, and implemented API tests using C# with RestSharp and native HttpClient, cutting Lead Times for development stories by 30%.Managing a geo-diverse team across London, Ipswich, Malta, and Barcelona, and coordinating with third-party vendors in London and India, I conducted regular 1-2-1s, appraisals, and line management duties to drive team performance. I also organized workshops and RCA sessions with Operations, Service, Support, and stakeholders, achieving a 60% reduction in wasted effort by aligning our testing strategies with vendors. Additionally, I engaged with third-party SDMs and QA leads to create quantifiable metrics for stakeholder updates and orchestrated the creation of a hybrid testing framework using C#, Selenium WebDriver, Unity for Dependency Injection, Specflow, Page Objects, RestSharp, and RabbitMQ, achieving 78% regression and integration test coverage. My focus remains on enhancing QA delivery processes, driving efficient release management, and leading high-performing teams to deliver outstanding results. Show less
