Where I've been building

Three roles, one thread — turning ambiguity into shippable, measurable work.

Sep 2026 — Present

Programmer Analyst

Process Improvement · Cognizant Technology Solutions

  • Maintain the feature backlog with the product team, translating stakeholder requests into prioritized user stories and lightweight specs ahead of sprint planning
  • Built an automation framework that helped the QA team automate regression flows, reducing execution time by 75%
  • Track release-readiness and defect metrics, summarizing findings for stakeholders to support go/no-go and prioritization decisions
  • Coordinate with the QE team to align automation coverage with roadmap priorities, improving workflows and delivery efficiency
Sep 2025 — Sep 2026

Programmer Analyst Trainee

Quality Engineering & Product Delivery · Cognizant Technology Solutions

  • Built reusable, data-driven test frameworks (Page Object Model) with clear reporting to keep cross-functional teams aligned on product quality
  • Integrated automation into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions) — triggers, reporting, build gating — for faster, more predictable release decisions
  • Improved release reliability via test parallelization, synchronization strategies, mock/stub services, and prioritized flaky-test fixes
Mar 2025 — Jul 2025

Intern

Cognizant Technology Solutions

  • Collaborated with the engineering team to validate key user flows and APIs, ensuring features met functional requirements before release

Capabilities

What I bring to the table

A product toolkit built on real delivery experience, not just theory.

🧭

Product Management

Requirements gathering, user stories, roadmap planning, prioritization (RICE, MoSCoW), Agile/Scrum, sprint planning, acceptance criteria, backlog grooming, PRD writing, release tracking, stakeholder coordination

📊

Data & Analytics

Tableau, Power BI, Excel, Matplotlib — turning release and usage data into decisions, not just dashboards

🤝

Collaboration

Azure Boards (ADO), Git/GitHub, GitHub Actions, Jira-style workflows — fluent in how engineering teams actually work

⚙️

Technical Fluency

Python, Java, Groovy, R, API validation, Selenium, Cucumber, Azure DevOps CI/CD pipeline — enough depth to collaborate directly with engineers

✨

AI / GenAI

Prompt engineering, context engineering, and GenAI fundamentals — applied, not just certified

🎯

Delivery Mindset

1.5 years inside release cycles — I know what "done" actually takes to ship, not just plan
