What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a QA automation role focused on scaling Selenium-based frameworks, improving test efficiency and defect prevention, working in collaborative Agile teams, and growing into technical leadership responsibilities.

I am a QA Automation Engineer with over 2 years of experience in functional, UI, regression, and API testing. I specialize in building scalable Selenium WebDriver frameworks using Java and TestNG.

I have automated 50+ test cases and developed 40+ automation scripts, reducing manual effort by 40% and accelerating test cycles by 25%. I improved test efficiency 25% through data-driven testing (Apache POI) and parallel execution, and helped cut post-release defects by 25% through early bug detection and optimized test design.

I collaborate closely in Agile teams, participate in bug triage and regression cycles, and use tools such as Postman, Jenkins, GitHub, and JIRA to ensure robust CI and traceability. On the HDFC ERGO customer portal, I designed and executed 100+ functional and regression test cases, improving coverage and product reliability.
