Bio
Parikshit Katikar
The testing Ninja, no word other than this for her. A quality tester cum manager cum mentor, improvised test coverage along with manual and automation things is what best explain Hema as. We have been working together almost for more than 2-3 years, she is the best colleague to work with and good at sharing the responsibilities at crucial times. Well versed with her testing knowledge, managing the teams, mentoring the people and bringing good ideas to the workflows always best suits to her. Apart from work, she is fun loving and makes herself and others more comfortable while doing work with peers. Hema, it is always good pleasure working with you. I wish you all the very best and keep doing good work the way you do always ☺️

I worked closely with Hema for a number of years, while she was Test Manager of the Riva Transfer Agency test team based in Pune. She was always reliable, professional, open and honest. She had a great depth of knowledge of both the application and industry domain and she used this to lead and mentor her team effectively. She has an excellent knowledge of testing practices but is always eager to learn more - I would highly recommend Hema to any prospective employer
