Is This Really Testing?

Hassan Bugti

Principal Consultant – Qalibrate, Denmark

I’m a Senior Test Analyst, Test Manager, QA Architect, QA Coach, a Leader and Change Agent who’s been working in the Financial Services industry since 2009. But that doesn’t tell the whole story. To be more specific, the majority of my career has been in the investment banking sector, which has exposed me to complex software solutions and entangled IT landscapes.

As an individual contributor to a team and organisation, I am passionate and engaged – capable of cooperating with vendors, end-users, external partners and across organisational layers. I pride myself on being systematic, organised and outgoing, and if need be, I use visual languages to communicate with my stakeholders. I know that people process information in various ways, so work to ensure that everyone is onboard.

I’m also a skilled stakeholder- and people-manager who constantly communicates, collaborates and aligns expectations across organizational levels and teams. I have acquired those skills working in a wide range of organisational setups. Some of the teams I worked on, I was the only tester, but I’ve also worked in larger setups where I was one amongst many.
