QA Automation Engineer focused on Selenium, Java, and API testing to ship reliable products.
What I'm looking for
I’m a QA Automation Engineer with a strong engineering mindset, combining UI defect resolution, backend validation, and automated testing. I’ve worked across education and banking-style environments, collaborating in Agile ceremonies and supporting production stability.
In my automation work, I built scalable frameworks using Selenium WebDriver with Java, along with TestNG and Maven. I automated end-to-end flows (including positive/negative scenarios) and created API tests using Rest Assured and Postman, then integrated them into CI/CD with Jenkins and version-controlled work with Git.
In production support, I handled incidents and ensured uptime by performing root cause analysis, managing deployments/releases/hotfixes, and monitoring systems using tools like Splunk and AppDynamics. I take pride in sustainable fixes, careful post-deployment validation, and maintaining adherence to SLAs.
