Akash S.

Senior QA Engineer | SaaS, AI & FinTech Testing | Web & Mobile Apps

33,000+ hours on Upwork · 5.0 rating · 100% Job Success · 30+ contracts Some bugs only show up once real users start clicking. My job is to find them first. I am a Senior QA Engineer with 12+ years in manual and functional testing, helping startups and product teams ship reliable SaaS, web, and mobile applications that hold up under real-world use. WHAT YOU GET WORKING WITH ME ✔ Bug reports your developers can act on right away: clear steps, screenshots, and a severity that matches real impact ✔ Coverage across functional, regression, smoke, sanity, cross-browser testing and exploratory testing ✔ Someone who asks the right questions early instead of guessing, so problems surface before release day ✔ Progress updates you don't have to chase me for ✔ QA run end to end, or an extra set of eyes that slots into your existing team WHAT I TEST ✔ Web and mobile apps (iOS and Android) ✔ Testing on real Windows, macOS, Android, iPhone, and iPad devices ✔ User acceptance testing (UAT), plus cross-browser and cross-device coverage ✔ API testing with Postman and Swagger ✔ Database verification in MySQL: I write SQL queries to confirm the right data actually lands in your tables, not just what the screen shows. This is where backend bugs hide from surface-level testing. WHERE I'VE WORKED SaaS, FinTech, AI & LLM-powered applications, eCommerce, Healthcare, CRM, Learning Management Systems (LMS), Marketplace platforms, Stock Trading platforms, and Booking platforms. Comfortable across the full SDLC and STLC in Agile, Scrum, and Kanban teams. TOOLS I USE Test management: TestRail, QMetry, Xray, Zephyr Bug tracking: Jira, Bugzilla, Mantis, ClickUp, Trello, Monday, GitHub API: Postman, Swagger Database: MySQL Design review: Figma, Miro WHY WORK WITH ME The 100% Job Success and clean 5.0 across 30+ contracts come from the basics done consistently: careful coverage, clear communication, and meeting the deadline I committed to. If you're looking for a QA engineer who communicates clearly, finds critical issues early, and helps you release with confidence, I would be happy to discuss your project.
