About Amit Yadav

Transforming Quality Engineering for Over a Decade | Agile Enthusiast | Automation Architect | Digital Transformation LeaderI’m an Associate Director in Quality Engineering and a Program/Delivery Manager & Automation Architect with 15+ years of experience leading large-scale transformations, cloud migrations, and automation-first delivery across Insurance, Legal/Compliance, Banking/Payments, and Tax/Audit. I specialize in building enterprise-grade automation (UI/API/Performance/Security), instituting CI/CD quality gates, and governing global teams to deliver predictable, high-quality products & releases. Known for stabilizing programs under pressure, I resolve complex delivery issues, align stakeholders, and drive change with an automation-first mindset. I’ve led onshore–offshore–nearshore teams, established QA practices from scratch, and embedded test strategy and execution directly into agile cycles to accelerate feedback and reduce defect leakage. I care about higher automation leverage, cycle‑time reduction, and velocity improvement—achieved by combining risk‑based testing, resilient pipelines (quality gates, flaky‑test quarantine), deterministic test data, and leadership dashboards. Tooling & domains: Playwright, Selenium, TOSCA, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitLab CI/CD; NeoLoad, NewRelic, AppDynamics; HCL AppScan, Synopsys BlackDuck; platforms including Azure, Salesforce, PEGA, MuleSoft, OpenText.NET/ASP.NET Web API, Angular/AngularJS, and Oracle. Certifications include CSM, ISTQB Foundation, New Relic Performance Pro, and Tricentis TOSCA (Automation & Test Design). If you’re tackling testing transformation, cloud migration quality, or automation architecture at scale—and want pragmatic governance, actionable telemetry, and a team culture that ships reliably—let’s connect.
