I am a Senior QA Automation Engineer delivering scalable UI/API frameworks and faster, higher-coverage releases.
What I'm looking for
I am a Senior QA Automation Engineer with 13 years of experience specializing in designing and enhancing UI and API test frameworks. I migrated core UI automation from Selenium to Playwright (JavaScript), boosting test execution speed by 3x and increasing coverage to 95%, implemented a new CI pipeline with Jenkins, Docker and Kubernetes that accelerated releases by 50%, and integrated Kafka messaging validations and AWS S3 into tests.
I mentor teams and conduct code reviews to improve automation script quality and maintainability, and I have built and maintained regression suites, modularized test frameworks, and automated cross-platform mobile and API tests. I work across Agile teams to drive defect triage and quality ownership while leveraging tools such as REST Assured, Karate, JMeter, Azure DevOps, Git, and cloud platforms to deliver reliable, high-coverage test automation.
