Project Description Validated NPI HPE servers with boot controllers and multi-vendor storage controllers across cross-compatible operating system environments. Ensured firmware and driver compliance prior to release. Responsibilities • Analyzed and documented requirements to design test plans and test cases • Led manual testing activities and coordinated test execution • Collaborated with development teams to ensure high-quality releases • Performed root cause analysis and supported defect resolution • Logged and tracked defects using JIRA and SPIRA • Generated detailed test reports, metrics, and validation summaries

Project Description Performed System Integration Testing (SIT) of NPI HPE servers with multi-vendor storage controllers across supported operating systems. Ensured compatibility, stability, and firmware compliance. Responsibilities • Reviewed specifications, release notes, and user guides • Configured NPI HPE server test beds (DL, ML, XL) per SPIRA guidelines • Validated server components including CPU, memory, storage, BIOS, and networking • Performed hardware configuration and validation (PCI, HBA, CNA, NIC, etc.) • Evaluated storage controller features (RAID, LUN, Cache, Encryption, Migration) • Conducted storage protocol testing (SCSI, iSCSI, FC, SAS, SATA, NVMe) • Executed virtualization tests using vSphere and Hyper-V • Performed defect analysis, logging, and developer coordination

Project Description Validated firmware and drivers for HPE ProLiant servers, Smart RAID / Mega RAID controllers, and storage boxes across enterprise operating systems. Responsibilities • Set up test bed configurations for ProLiant and Synergy servers via ALM • Updated server recipes and conducted ST, STR, and FSC testing • Replicated customer defects and gathered diagnostic logs (SUM, AHS, IML, etc.) • Collaborated with developers for root cause analysis • Prepared reports, documentation, and test estimations
