Talk Description
In this episode of Leading With Quality, Rosie Sherry speaks with Aiman Syed, QA Lead and Production Support at Globacap. Aiman shares how she operates as a solo quality lead in a regulated fintech and how being close to production sharpens priorities. She walks through her “solo quality roadmap,” the habits that got developers testing thoughtfully, and the role of compliance in everyday decisions.
You’ll hear about:
- Turning production insights into focused quality work
- Simple practices that make exploratory testing part of delivery
- Clear checks for staging and production that keep risk low
- Choosing tools to fit the stack, not trends
- Practical onboarding for the next QA hire
If you want a grounded view of leading quality without a large team, this conversation shows how to create structure, build momentum, and keep users at the centre.
