I build scalable web and API automation frameworks that improve testing coverage, reliability, and release speed.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I've built and maintained scalable web and API automation frameworks for UST, Turvo, and Thomson Reuters across healthcare, logistics, and tax compliance products.
At UST, I created a Playwright and TypeScript framework from scratch for MedScreen, using Page Object Models, fixtures, reusable utilities, and Azure DevOps traceability.
At Turvo, I helped migrate smoke, sanity, and regression suites from Protractor to Playwright, resolved failures across test tracks, and achieved a 97% pass rate while maintaining Jenkins CI/CD integration.
At Thomson Reuters, I designed a PyTest and Python API automation framework, automated functional and regression suites with WebDriverIO, built Datadog synthetic monitoring tests, and contributed to Angular, Java, SQL, and application testing work.
