Head of Product & Senior QA Engineer
I'm Emelia Sunday-Edet — a product leader and quality engineer with over 8 years of experience building and scaling digital products across fintech, SaaS, and e-commerce. I specialise in turning strategic vision into products that actually ship: reliable, user-centred, and built to grow.
What sets me apart is the combination. Most product leaders hand quality off. I own it — having spent years in QA before moving into product leadership, I understand how decisions made at strategy level ripple through to the end-user experience.
Two disciplines.
One sharp perspective.
I work across product leadership and quality engineering — bringing both the strategic clarity of a PM and the technical rigour of a QA engineer to every engagement.
Product Strategy & Roadmap
Defining where your product needs to go and building the roadmap to get there. I align business goals with user needs and create a strategy the whole team can execute against.
Product LeadershipCross-functional Team Leadership
Leading product teams that span engineering, design, data, and commercial — creating the structure and communication flows that turn talented people into high-performing teams.
Product LeadershipTest Automation & Tooling
Building automation frameworks that give your team speed without sacrificing confidence. I design end-to-end test suites for web and mobile, selecting the right tools for your stack.
Quality EngineeringQA Strategy & Defect Prevention
Embedding quality into the way your team works — not just at the end of the pipeline. I design QA processes that integrate with agile delivery and catch problems before they reach users.
