Preshit Satalgaonkar
@preshitsatalgaonkar
QA Automation Engineer focused on end-to-end, self-healing web/API test automation.
What I'm looking for
I’m a detail-oriented QA Automation Engineer with 1.5 years of experience delivering robust test automation across web and API layers. I take pride in owning automation end-to-end and turning testing into reliable, repeatable engineering.
My hands-on expertise centers on Selenium Java and Cucumber BDD for UI automation, plus ReadyAPI for functional, regression, and integration API coverage. I’ve built frameworks with strong structure using Page Object Model (POM), data-driven approaches, and BDD-aligned execution.
I also build for maintainability and speed. In my most recent work, I engineered an AI-powered self-healing framework that detects broken XPath locators, consults multiple LLMs for resilience, and auto-commits healed locators to a new Git branch—cutting long-term maintenance overhead.
Beyond test creation, I integrate automation into delivery workflows using Jenkins and CI/CD pipeline integration running on VMs. I’m ISTQB certified and recognized for automation design thinking—winning “Ultimate Testers Challenge” (ranked 1st company-wide, including while being the most junior participant).
