Sachini has a unique blend of skills, abilities and talents that she brings to her role as a senior quality assurance practitioner. From a technical perspective, she is detailed oriented in functional testing, and will ask relevant and insightful questions about the requirements, and implementation details, ensuring that her test approach suits the circumstances. Often times these questions alone will tease out additional requirements refinement, or identify bugs as a means of static testing. Sachini has also had exposure to non-functional testing, notably compatibility and performance testing and, always keen to expand her own horizons, if she is unsure about something, she is very resourceful about finding out. This is a key driver of her professional growth. Besides the hands-on, technical aspects of quality assurance and software testing, Sachini has worked on a variety of projects with various team dynamics, and she is adept at building rapport with a wide variety of personalities. This is a key component to QA success, as the best results are always achieved during collaboration. I believe Sachini to be an asset to any team which values a good mix of technical and interpersonal skills, as well as great balance of optimism and professional skepticism.

Sachini is a technically savvy quality lead, and I worked with her at Sysco LABS on Sysco's next-gen ordering platform called Sysco Shop. She is thorough on all aspects of quality, including security and performance. She helped build a solid and reliable test automation suite and established quality engineering processes to help us deliver quality features faster for customers. She is an empathetic leader and nurtured her direct reports and peers by conducting workshops and tech talks. Sachini proved as a valuable engineer at Sysco LABS, and I give her my full recommendation.
