DT Hieu
@dthieu
Senior automation test engineer and QA lead, scaling frameworks and cutting regression cycles for fintech and web platforms.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Automation Test Engineer & QA Lead with 7+ years building automation frameworks from scratch across fintech data pipeline validation on Microsoft Fabric, legacy .NET 4 enterprise web apps, and modern web platforms for UK & APAC clients.
I’ve consistently tracked results—cutting regression cycles by up to 85%, scaling suites from zero to 3,000+ cases with a 98% pass rate, and acting as the primary automation point-of-contact for international stakeholders. I also lead a 5-person QA team with full people-management responsibility (hiring, performance reviews, mentoring) across three concurrent UK-client engagements.
My work focuses on end-to-end test strategy and stability: driving Playwright/TypeScript and Selenium/Java automation, integrating CI/CD via Azure Pipelines, and using precise SQL + Pandas validation to close the loop from ingestion to user-facing reporting. I’m also investing in reusable engineering through an open-source Playwright E2E framework and ongoing data validation initiatives.
