What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a QA Automation role where I can leverage automation and data-driven insights to enhance software quality.

At Rethinkpay Finance, I designed and executed end-to-end test strategies and developed Playwright automation for payment gateway workflows. My API testing and validation of banking integrations contributed to 99.8% transaction reliability.

I also integrated automated regression testing with Git-based CI/CD workflows and conducted defect triage and root-cause analysis. This work reduced critical production defects by 35% and accelerated issue resolution by 25%.

At Illinois State University, I supported quality-focused academic projects and developed Power BI dashboards to track KPIs across 1,000+ records. My analysis and quality management work improved reporting efficiency by 23%.
