BHARAT VERMA
@bharatverma1
I lead SDET and test automation architecture, delivering scalable AI quality engineering.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Lead SDET and Test Automation Architect with 10+ years of experience building scalable quality engineering solutions across retail banking, HR benefits, operational risk, and enterprise SaaS platforms. I’m known for designing automation frameworks from scratch that reduce regression effort by 60%+ and drive multi-million-dollar operational savings.
I specialize in Playwright and Selenium-based automation, end-to-end UI/API quality engineering, and CI/CD quality gates that make release governance reliable. I’ve implemented AI-driven quality evaluation pipelines for RAG-based chatbot systems—validating hallucination rates, retrieval accuracy, prompt drift, and response consistency using Promptfoo, Ollama, and ChromaDB.
In practice, I build resilience into test suites: I’ve delivered AI-driven self-healing locators across Playwright and Selenium, cutting automation maintenance effort by 40% and reducing CI/CD failures from dynamic DOM changes. I also lead root-cause analysis across distributed microservices ecosystems, improving defect triage timelines by 35% through enhanced API and database validation workflows.
I bring leadership and measurable outcomes: I integrated SNYK security scanning into CI/CD pipelines, and I built a centralized Angular-based QE governance dashboard that reduced manual release validation effort by 60%. I enjoy partnering with product and engineering teams to shift quality left, strengthen automation governance, and continuously improve delivery confidence.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Architected end-to-end quality engineering strategy for the Darwin HR Benefits platform, establishing automated test coverage across 500+ critical workflows spanning UI, API, security, performance, and visual validation. Built RAG evaluation pipelines and self-healing Playwright/Selenium frameworks, cutting regression effort by 60%+ and reducing automation maintenance 40% while improving microserv
Led test automation architecture for retail banking web, desktop, and mobile (iOS/Android) applications, building Selenium/Java frameworks from scratch with BDD (Cucumber/Serenity) to validate complex workflows in highly regulated environments. Developed automated data generation for 80+ legacy products, saving 35,000+ engineering hours annually and reducing operational testing costs by 60% YoY.
Designed and implemented a hybrid, data-driven test automation framework for a US investment banking application (Retirals Benefit Payment System), improving test reliability. Authored cross-platform UI and regression automation scripts in C#, Python, and Selenium WebDriver, streamlining QA workflows with NUnit and SpecFlow to reduce manual test execution time by 60% YoY.
Architected UI, API, and regression automation solutions across investment banking, mortgage, and operational risk management domains. Built a C# + NUnit API validation utility and optimized enterprise Selenium/Cucumber frameworks, earning an internal 'Order of Merit' award for a proprietary solution generating $2M in operational cost savings.
