I’m a QA engineer and automation tester blending Java test frameworks with AI-assisted QA for faster, higher-quality releases.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Computer Science Engineer (AI & ML) with 4+ years of combined hands-on experience across professional, internship, and academic roles in software testing, automation engineering, and full-stack development. I build reliable test strategies rooted in white-box and black-box testing, SDLC/STLC, and Agile/Scrum.
As a Trainee Software Engineer in Test at Azentio Software, I designed and executed white-box and black-box test plans across functional, regression, smoke, sanity, integration, and UAT scenarios for web and mobile. I built and maintained a Playwright UI automation framework (JavaScript/TypeScript), integrated automated suites into Jenkins CI/CD pipelines, and used shift-left and continuous delivery practices to improve coverage and reduce cycle time.
I also strengthen quality through end-to-end validation: REST API testing with Postman/manual REST validation, SQL-based backend validation against MySQL/Oracle, and defect lifecycle management in JIRA with full requirement traceability. When issues arise, I perform root cause analysis by digging into application code and logs, then recommend fixes that improve delivery quality.
I leverage AI tools like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT to generate test scenarios and identify edge cases, accelerating test planning without increasing manual effort. I’m also a Certified AI-Empowered SAFe 6 Scrum Master, and I’ve delivered cross-domain projects spanning AI/ML, Full-Stack, Embedded AI, and Software Testing.
