What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead automation and DevOps initiatives, build scalable CI/CD test pipelines, mentor teams, and drive quality in Agile environments.

I am a results-driven Senior Software Engineer with 4+ years of experience in automation testing and DevOps, focused on improving testing efficiency and product quality.

I have built and maintained automation frameworks using Selenium (Java), REST Assured, Cypress, POM and TestNG, and integrated test suites into Jenkins and GitHub CI/CD pipelines to enable automated nightly runs and faster releases.

My work has reduced test execution time and manual effort by ~30% and decreased post-release bugs by ~40% through reusable scripts, API automation, and scalable test environments using Docker and Kubernetes.

I collaborate in Agile teams, mentor others, and leverage monitoring and reporting tools like Grafana, Prometheus and Allure to ensure visibility and continuous improvement across the delivery lifecycle.
