I've built end-to-end automation frameworks across Stratosphere IT Services, Neuroglee Health, HealthifyMe, Altimetrik, Tata Digital Health, Infostretch, and Cognizant.

At Neuroglee Health, I developed automation for web, iOS, and Android using Selenium, Java, Cucumber, Page Factory, and Appium, reducing manual testing effort by approximately 50% and improving regression efficiency by approximately 40%. I also integrated automation into CI/CD pipelines, created regression and integration suites, and led QA execution.

My work spans Playwright with TypeScript, Selenium, Appium, TestNG, REST Assured, and cross-device platforms including BrowserStack and Sauce Labs. I've supported products across banking and finance, healthcare, insurance, logistics, Salesforce, and mobile platforms.

I enjoy mentoring QA engineers, strengthening test coverage, tracking quality metrics, and partnering with product and development teams to resolve issues faster and improve release confidence.
