What I'm looking for

I seek an Agile team-focused role where I can lead automation efforts, improve CI/CD test coverage, mentor peers, and deliver high-quality software with measurable efficiency gains.

I am a results-driven software testing professional with over 6 years of experience in manual and automated testing, focused on building scalable automation frameworks and improving test efficiency across domains like banking, retail, and e-commerce.

I have led Selenium/Java automation efforts, integrated tests into Jenkins and Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines, and designed frameworks using TestNG, Cucumber, Maven, and Rest Assured to catch defects early and accelerate delivery.

I collaborate closely with cross-functional Agile teams, conduct code reviews, mentor peers, and employ tools such as JIRA, Git, SQL, and Postman to ensure thorough test coverage and high-quality releases.

I hold a Master of Computer Applications and have a proven track record of increasing automation coverage and reducing deployment time while maintaining rigorous manual testing discipline for regression, smoke, and performance testing.
