Senior SDET at GROWERS who architected a TypeScript API framework covering ~95% of backend regression.

At GROWERS, I architected a TypeScript API framework that supported ~95% automated backend regression coverage across complex transactional workflows. I also built Playwright and WebdriverIO regression suites and a Pactum mock server for external ERP integrations.

I cut CI pipeline runtime by ~50% through parallel execution in GitLab CI/CD and migrated 180+ backend integration test files from JavaScript to TypeScript. At FM SYSTEMS, I established mobile automation for iOS and Android and built a JMeter performance test suite; earlier, I managed QA activities at CROC and led a five-person QA team at SMS-IT.
