Experienced Senior SDET with a focus on automation and quality.
United KingdomWhat I'm looking for
I'm an experienced and impact-driven Senior Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) with over 10 years in testing and more than 8 years specializing in automation. My expertise lies in blending deep QA knowledge with modern infrastructure, cloud, and observability practices. I have a proven track record of building test frameworks from scratch, scaling coverage, and embedding quality into CI/CD processes. I thrive in fast-paced Agile environments, where I actively contribute to infrastructure monitoring, alerting, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to minimize downtime and enhance test stability.
Throughout my career, I have developed hands-on experience with a variety of technologies including Java, TypeScript, Selenium, and REST Assured. I have successfully designed and implemented a TypeScript-based automation framework that significantly reduced code duplication and improved test coverage. My role at Pole Star Space Applications has allowed me to take ownership of end-to-end test processes, integrating observability and cloud-native tooling into the QA lifecycle. I leverage AI tools to enhance test generation and documentation, maximizing team velocity and quality.
