I'm Kinchit Gauswami
I work as a Senior QA Manager at CIBC
I lead quality for the systems you never see - but millions rely on every day.
I lead a global team ensuring the stability of 1500+ APIs powering every non-financial transaction in the bank.
Quality. Architecture. People. Systems.
Where Reliability Meets Leadership
I build and lead systems where reliability is not optional. Where quality isn't a phase - it's the foundation.
Over the past decade, I've worked across banking, aviation, and telecom, leading QA at enterprise scale while also building complete products and platforms on the side - from mobile apps to internal operational systems used nationwide.
