About Me

Quality is a
discipline,
not a checkbox.

I'm Kautilya Mishra, a Quality Analyst based in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh. With 1.5+ years across product and enterprise QA — at Logimonk Technologies and QualityKiosk Technologies — I've built a reputation for thorough test coverage, clean defect reporting, and near-zero post-release surprises.

I read requirements the way developers write code — looking for gaps, edge cases, and assumptions that could break things later. I believe QA belongs at every stage of the product lifecycle, not just at the end.

Meticulous Tester
I design test cases that cover not just happy paths but edge cases, negative flows, and boundary conditions that developers often miss.
Requirement Analyst
Skilled at reading BRDs and FRDs to surface ambiguities before a single line of code is written — preventing costly mid-sprint changes.
Team Collaborator
Comfortable on client calls, product demos, in UAT sessions, and in sprint ceremonies — I bridge QA with developers, BAs, and product owners daily.
Mentor
Reviewed and guided junior QA engineers at Logimonk, improving overall test quality and team consistency.
