Praveenkumar R

I’m a software engineer specializing in automation QA and infrastructure tooling, with 4+ years of experience driving test automation, quality, and faster delivery. I build and maintain automation platforms and backend services that reduce manual effort and keep releases moving ahead of schedule.

At Aziro Tech (HPE Storage), I’ve led acceptance testing across pre-release versions and integrated regression automation scripts with Dev and QA teams. I’ve optimized Jenkins CI/CD pipelines for better job efficiency and improved error handling, while using TestRail and JIRA to streamline bug triaging and verification.

As I transition into infra tools development, I’m focused on enhancing the in-house Zeus automation platform and delivering critical bug fixes requested by QA and product teams. I also contribute to internal dashboards, using React and JavaScript to make quality and execution insights easier to act on.

I enjoy building production-ready backend tooling, especially with Rust. For example, I developed an NLP Text Intelligence API in pure Rust (async handling with Tokio/Axum, JSON via Serde, and AI chat integration with Claude using the Anthropic API) to deliver sentiment analysis, keyword extraction, similarity, summarization, and session-managed conversational features.
