Europe
I help European engineering teams fix flaky test suites, reduce regression bottlenecks, and build release pipelines they can trust — across markets, languages, and time zones. My experience comes from full-time SDET roles at Oracle, Flipkart, and Logitech-scale programs.
⏰ CET overlap: 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM CET (12:30–9:30 PM IST) — full working day 💰 USD pricing, fixed scope 🇪🇺 GDPR aware
Technical Expertise
Why European teams hire me
Multi-language delivery
At Logitech I managed automation across 6 locales — the same challenge European companies face when shipping across Germany, France, the UK, and beyond. I know how to handle regional configuration testing without multiplying maintenance cost.
GDPR and compliance
I am familiar with GDPR requirements from working at Oracle and with European-headquartered companies (Logitech). My testing approach respects data privacy constraints while maintaining comprehensive coverage.
Distributed team dynamics
I provide centralised QA architecture and coordination for distributed teams. CET overlap means I join standups and ceremonies in real-time. Structured process, clear ownership, measurable outcomes.
Proven outcomes
Logitech program (Mar 2021–Jul 2022)
Core automation team: Selenium BDD, Cypress, Backstop.js visual validation, 22+ Jenkins jobs per week across 6 locales. Multi-language, multi-market delivery — directly relevant for European companies shipping across the continent.

Time zone
My standard day runs 12:30–9:30 PM IST, which perfectly overlaps 9:00 AM–6:00 PM CET (winter) and 8:00 AM–5:00 PM CEST (summer). I join standups, sprint ceremonies, and collaborate in real-time across all European time zones.
Communication
I provide a written daily status: what was done, what blocked progress, and what needs a decision. Weekly video syncs for deeper review. European teams appreciate structured, outcome-oriented communication.
Payment
Pricing is in USD with fixed-scope engagements. The Stabilization Sprint carries a 50% outcome guarantee — if your release signal is not measurably better, I refund half the fee. The measurable criteria are defined in the statement of work.

Excellent. IST is 3.5 hours ahead of CET (4.5 during CEST). My working day (12:30–9:30 PM IST) covers your full 9 AM–5 PM working day across most of Europe. I join standups, sprint ceremonies, and respond in real-time.
Yes. I am familiar with GDPR requirements from working at Oracle and with Logitech (a Swiss-headquartered company). My testing approach respects data privacy constraints, and I follow the documentation and audit discipline that European regulations expect.
Yes. At Logitech I managed test automation across 6 locales with different languages and regional configurations. This is directly relevant for European companies shipping products across Germany, France, Italy, Spain, the Nordics, and beyond.
Fixed-price in USD. Engagements start with a release audit (7-10 days, $2,400) or a Stabilization Sprint (20 days, $7,200 with 50% outcome guarantee). Contracts are straightforward — scope, price, timeline, outcome.
European SDET consultants charge premium rates. I offer the same senior capability at a fraction of the cost with a 50% outcome guarantee. Full CET overlap means no time zone friction. Fixed scope means no cost surprises.
