Poorvi Ladha

A Technology Assurance and Quality Engineering leader with over 15 years of experience helping large, regulated organizations reduce delivery risk, improve release confidence, and scale quality as a strategic capability.
Her work sits at the intersection of process transformation, automation, AI-enabled accelerators, and continuous quality measurement. Over the years, she has led enterprise-scale QA transformations across the banking and insurance sectors, consistently delivering measurable outcomes in UAT defect leakage, Defect Removal Efficiency (DRE) sustained above 90%, and regression automation coverage exceeding 80%.
A key differentiator in her journey has been his ability to build in-house, scalable quality platforms rather than relying solely on off-the-shelf tools. She also designed and delivered an award-winning AI-driven Testing Workbench, recognized in an enterprise innovation competition and actively used by multiple teams for over 1.5 years, significantly reducing tester effort across test approach definition, test design, and automation readiness.
In addition, she has built and led QA organizations of 70+ members, managed multi-vendor delivery models, and partnered closely with Technology, Risk, and Audit leadership to support regulatory readiness and control assurance.
