What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and growth opportunities.

As a dedicated QA Automation Test Engineer with three years of experience, I have honed my skills in implementing test plans, tracking bugs, and executing software tests to ensure the reliability and efficiency of software products. My journey began at Cognizant, where I led a team of 12 QA automation members, significantly enhancing our testing strategy and increasing productivity by 20%. My strong analytical skills have contributed to continuous improvement initiatives, resulting in a remarkable 40% boost in team productivity.

Throughout my career, I have developed innovative tools to streamline processes, such as a manual Proof of Testing (POT) template and a metrics extraction tool that improved data integrity and reduced discrepancies by 15%. I have also delivered over 20 training sessions in Java and Selenium, mentoring team members on best practices in automation. My commitment to quality assurance and automation has been instrumental in supporting numerous internal projects, where I successfully troubleshot complex challenges and implemented Jenkins pipeline integration.
