The customer, Virtusa, faced the challenge of upskilling an employee whose extensive manual testing experience was no longer competitive in an industry rapidly shifting toward automation and AI-driven testing. The employee, Gowthami Golli, needed to bridge her skills gap to confidently move into higher-level technical roles and turned to the vendor, Simplilearn, for its AI-Powered Automation Test Engineer Program.

Simplilearn’s solution provided a structured, weekend-based learning path focused on practical implementation and real-world concepts, which was ideal for a working professional. The results were significant: Gowthami successfully transitioned from a Senior Test Specialist to a Lead Software Engineer at Virtusa, achieving a nearly 90% salary hike.
