QA Engineering · Release Management · Banking & Fintech
I plan and run the releases that can't fail — core banking, payments, account opening — and I build the QA process that gets them there. Citi. HSBC. Banorte. AXA. UL Solutions.
Now taking freelance and contract work, and open to remote roles.
Multisite enterprise deployment of a consumer product testing portal. I introduced AI-assisted test design and defect clustering, then rebuilt triage around it — and mapped risk and dependencies across the cross-functional teams feeding the release.
Global banking application live in eight-plus countries. I owned release planning, cutover execution, hotfix deployment and rollback procedure for a platform where a bad night is a headline.
Consumer banking mobile app, then the account opening platform and its automated validation and approval workflows. Seven years on the same client, moving from manual tester to running the release.
Core banking on AS/400 (IBM i). ATM transaction flows, service integration and 5250 interfaces — the layer most testers never touch and every bank still runs on.
Release planning, go/no-go criteria, cutover runbooks, rollback plans and deployment coordination — part-time, for teams that ship big and have nobody who has done it before.
Where quality is actually breaking down, what to test and what to stop testing, and a 90-day plan your team can run without me.
Putting AI where it earns its keep: test design, defect clustering, log analysis, visual regression. With the guardrails that keep it from generating confident nonsense.
API and end-to-end testing, UAT coordination with business stakeholders, traceability and evidence packs that survive an audit.
A real QA audit — functional testing, API validation and an automated WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility scan. 23 findings ranked by severity, with evidence, probable root cause and a recommended fix for each. This is my own product, audited with the same method and format I deliver to clients.

I ran it the way I run a client release: milestone branches, deploy previews, a documented findings log per version, and a beta program with real testers. Fifteen years of telling engineers what broke, spent on my own product.
