What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior QA/automation role where I can build and scale automation frameworks, integrate testing with CI/CD, collaborate in Agile teams, and drive quality improvements.

I am a Software Quality Engineer with 6.5+ years of hands-on experience in Manual and Automation Testing across Web, Mobile, and API platforms. I have built automation frameworks from scratch using Java, REST Assured, TestNG, Maven and implemented UI automation with Selenium and Playwright, improving regression coverage and early defect detection.

At Spring Financial I developed a REST Assured API automation framework, created Jenkins pipelines with scheduled runs and Slack reporting, and implemented Datadog monitoring to proactively track API health. I have a track record of integrating automation into CI/CD, validating backend data, and collaborating in Agile teams to align test coverage with business needs.

I bring strong skills in requirement analysis, test planning, BDD Cucumber, and cross-functional collaboration, and I focus on delivering quality through robust test strategies, automation efficiency, and clear stakeholder communication.
