I'm a Test Engineer with 1.5+ years of experience at Indegene, working on healthcare CRM platforms for Sanofi and Boehringer Ingelheim. I design and execute functional, regression, integration, smoke, sanity, and UAT test cases — covering boundary values, negative scenarios, and edge cases — and have maintained zero critical post-release defects across two consecutive sprints.

I test REST APIs (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE), validating JSON responses and HTTP status codes, and confirm backend data integrity using SQL (SELECT, JOIN, WHERE, GROUP BY). I use browser DevTools to inspect console errors and network requests, which helps me catch issues before developers do. I also run cross-browser and cross-device testing on BrowserStack across 10+ combinations, and log detailed, reproducible defects in JIRA and Redmine with steps, severity, and evidence.

I'm ISTQB Foundation Level certified and hold a B.Tech in Electronics and Communication Engineering from Presidency University, Bangalore. I'm currently interested in growing into automation testing and want to build hands-on skills with tools like Selenium or Playwright as a next step.
