What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA role where I can own end-to-end testing strategy, build automation that runs in CI/CD, and collaborate closely with delivery and stakeholders—especially across web/mobile/API and AI/LLM evaluation.

I’m a Senior QA Engineer and QA Lead with 9+ years of experience across web, mobile, desktop, API, and enterprise platforms. I’ve owned QA planning and execution for banking, semiconductor e-commerce, health-insurance, 3D design, and LLM-based products.

I’m hands-on with Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, Appium, Postman, BrowserStack, and TypeScript/JavaScript automation, and I run automated tests in CI/CD pipelines. I focus on test strategy, automation design, clear stakeholder communication, and mentoring QA teams.

In my current role, I’m the test owner for the mobile side of a core module in a health-insurance application. I drive iOS and Android release validation using Cypress and Playwright for coverage, BrowserStack and Appium for device testing, and Percy for visual regression, with Postman for API validation.

I also lead quality for evaluation-based AI workflows, designing QA approaches for stochastic LLM outputs using quality rubrics to surface inconsistent or unreliable responses. Alongside my engineering work, I’ve served as a Teaching Assistant, mentoring students through complex projects and maintaining high academic standards.
