What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can lead scalable test automation and CI/CD quality gates, run risk-based testing with strong observability, and responsibly use GenAI for test generation, flaky-test analysis, and continuous improvement.

I’m a Software Development Engineer in Test (Lead) focused on building automation-first, continuous testing systems that keep high-growth FinTech SaaS platforms dependable. I specialize in scalable, maintainable test frameworks across UI, API, mobile, and backend layers—so quality is measurable, repeatable, and fast.

At ZenLedger.io, I architected a POM-based Cypress automation framework with Appium iOS coverage, driving major improvements in regression coverage and reducing manual effort. I own release quality and defect escalation through Datadog dashboards, Slack alerts, and GitHub Actions quality gates, cutting defect turnaround time to 1–2 hours, while translating customer workflows into regression suites across many exchanges and wallets.

I also drive performance and load testing with k6 and strengthen test reliability by validating backend test data and transaction flows with PostgreSQL and observability tooling. I mentor QA engineers and actively apply GenAI/LLM tooling to generate test cases, analyze flaky tests, and prioritize testing—alongside building LLM evaluation harnesses to catch hallucinations and improve RAG quality.
