Experience

1. Senior Cloud Consultant, Implementation Test Lead

   Oracle

   Aug 2024 — Present · Alameda, CA, US

   As an Implementation Test Lead at Oracle, I spearhead testing efforts for an Oracle HCM implementation, managing the full testing lifecycle from planning and execution to defect resolution and reporting. I lead and mentor testing teams, develop comprehensive test strategies, and ensure alignment with client requirements and project timelines. My focus is on delivering high-quality solutions that meet client needs across HCM modules (Core HR, Payroll, Benefits, Absence, Time and Labor, and Compensation). I also provide training and support to client teams to ensure smooth post-implementation testing. I leverage tools like JIRA for defect tracking and maintain transparent communication with all stakeholders.
