About Amit Kumar

I\'m a QA and Payments professional with nearly 4 years of experience across development, functional analysis, and testing. I\'ve worked both offshore and onsite (1.5 years at client location), where I supported UAT, handled production issues, and ensured smooth, end-to-end delivery. My focus has been in the payments domain, with hands-on experience in ISO20022 (SEPA) and ISO8583. I’ve worked as a developer and a production analyst, giving me a strong understanding of the full SDLC. I use JIRA and Confluence for managing and documenting test cases, and tools like SoapUI and Postman for API testing. I also prepare automation-ready test data and actively contribute to regression and manual testing efforts. I\'m familiar with Agile (Scrum) workflows and have been exploring UI/UX principles to better understand usability and solve real-world user problems. I enjoy collaborating across teams to deliver reliable and user-focused solutions.
