Summary of I do have a total of 7 years of experience in the field of Information Technology. 3 years of my
Qualifications profession I spent as Software Engineer for Main Frame Cobol with project that deals with the
maintenance of a well known credit and banking company. I started as a Junior Software Engineer
and later promoted as Senior Software Engineer. In this field I get familiar with Waterfall Method
of System Development Life Cycle. I was able to take part on almost all the parts of the SDLC,
from business requirement definition, implementation, testing to disaster recovery part of the
system. During my profession as a developer, together with my team we were able to deliver
series of project support and maintenance to our client such as programs for new perks for the
customers and among others. After 3 years in the field of programming I decided to shift in
Quality Assurance Testing since I do have enough experience in different types of testing from the
Waterfall method. I get hired as QC Team Lead for a Mobile Application Company that mainly
caters mobile apps and services for the well-known telecommunications company here in the
Philippines. I lead about 3-4 people in performing quality assurance process in the company.
Basically we provide quality testing to all the services that we cater to the client. As well as I do
perform/create reports to the upper management, present and implement several process
improvement especially that deals to quality management. I have also worked as a QC Engineer
for a European Company that caters quality assurance testing and control for US based clients
such as company for health care, mobile and web applications, HR management software and
among others. The methodology that the company practices is AGILE-Scrum. As QC Engineer it
is my duty to perform different types of testing as to what the project requires, create test cases,
logged and verify defects/issues and do demo to the client after every sprint. Also it is my duty to
send out status report and as well as test summary reports to the management. Currently I am a
Senior Consultant for the COE Testing of an Indian owned company Capgemini, it is my
responsibility to lead and handle the testing team and ensure that all the process of STLC are met
and satisfied. The company’s projects are more of financial services so it includes mobile banking
and web based banking as well as capital markets and insurance. The team performs functional
testing as well as performance testing for the automation team. It’s my duty to coordinate closely
with the PM and team members as well as conduct test meetings and review project
documentation.
