At American Airlines, I build scalable UI and API automation frameworks with Playwright and Selenium, automate test gaps, and migrate legacy suites to improve maintainability and execution speed.

I use MCP-driven test generation from user stories and GitHub Actions pipelines to speed feedback, strengthen shift-left quality, and reduce manual effort across release cycles.

Previously at DP World and Signify, I delivered end-to-end UI, API, database, and IoT testing, built CI/CD-enabled frameworks, and supported reliable releases across logistics and connected lighting products.
