What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth, collaboration, and innovation in software quality assurance.

I am a highly experienced and accomplished QA Automation Engineer (SDET) with over 5 years of expertise in testing web and client-server applications. My proficiency spans all aspects of the testing process, including planning, design, execution, automation, and defect management. I excel in implementing the Page Object Model (POM) design pattern, which enhances test readability and simplifies maintenance, ensuring efficient and reliable UI testing.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong understanding of DevOps principles, successfully implementing Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) practices using tools like Jenkins. My experience includes utilizing leading test management and defect tracking tools such as HP Quality Center, ALM, and Jira for efficient test planning and execution. I am skilled in configuring Selenium Grid to optimize test execution time and improve overall test coverage, and I effectively communicate with stakeholders to ensure the successful delivery of high-quality software products.
