QA ENGINEER · TEN YEARS · STILL CURIOUS
Hi, I'm Bal Mukund. Empowering teams to ship reliable software faster.
My passion is improving product and user experience — across e-commerce, hospitality, multi-tenant systems and enterprise software, with a traveler's eye for the path nobody tested.
ABOUT
Off the clock I travel, read, and pick people's minds — the same curiosity that finds the bug nobody thought to look for. I've tested checkout flows during flash sales, booking engines at midnight, and tenant isolation in systems where one leak means a lawsuit.
NOW
In times of AI writing the code — figuring out how to increase test coverage while keeping every test impactful, not just numerous.
