SDET Lead at Tata Consultancy Services who cut regression cycle time by 60% with a 500+ case automation framework.

At Tata Consultancy Services, I built and owned a full-stack automation framework covering 500+ UI, API, and integration test cases, reducing regression cycle time by about 60%. I also designed an AI-powered test automation framework with OpenAI GPT-4o and Streamlit for natural-language test generation.

I lead test strategy and automation work across enterprise systems, including migrating key suites from Selenium to Playwright and integrating GitHub Actions for regression and smoke testing. I mentor SDETs and work across functional, integration, performance, and end-to-end testing.
