Vice President @ BlackRock | Test Automation Lead/Architect

The most important skill that has helped me succeed is problem-solving. From my early college days, I developed a habit of identifying problems and creating structured solutions for them. This habit turned into a passion and later shaped my career in the software industry, particularly in test automation. Over the years, I honed my skills in automation framework design, strategic planning, and integrating industry best practices, which allowed me to deliver efficient and scalable solutions. I believe in staying resilient and focusing on solutions rather than setbacks. Tough times are inevitable, but I have learned to see them as challenges rather than obstacles. My approach is to remain determined, continuously learn, and adapt to new situations. Failures don’t discourage me; instead, they push me to think differently and innovate better. Through my work, I have contributed significantly to improving automation testing processes, reducing test cycle times, and enabling faster time-to-market for clients. I also believe in knowledge-sharing and collective collaboration, ensuring my team members grow alongside me. Beyond work, I enjoy traveling and exploring different cultures, which has helped me gain diverse perspectives and connect with people globally. A key milestone in my journey was when I had the opportunity to be part of multiple onsite and offshore core automation teams. Delivering innovative, scalable, and robust test automation solutions for various industries was a turning point that reinforced my expertise and confidence in this field. My current role as Vice President at BlackRock has been another significant achievement, allowing me to lead and influence automation strategies at a larger scale. For me, success is about continuous learning, problem-solving, and making a meaningful impact through my work. It’s not just about professional growth but also about personal fulfillment. My goal is to keep innovating in test automation, mentor aspiring professionals in the field, and continue exploring my passion for travel and culinary experiences.
