Experienced automation engineer specializing in test automation, CI/CD, and performance optimization.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I am an Automation Engineer with around 5 years of experience delivering manual and automated testing across mobile, web, and API platforms. I design and implement robust frameworks (POM, BDD, Hybrid), integrate database validation, and build CI/CD pipelines to improve test reliability and speed.
At Genpact and HCLTech I managed large-scale test suites — 1,500+ API tests and 500+ UI tests — built frameworks hosted on GitLab, and maintained multiple automation frameworks across diverse technology stacks. My work increased coverage, reduced manual effort by over 70%, and shortened execution time by 40%.
I emphasize continuous learning, clear documentation, and measurable results, with strengths in scripting (TypeScript, Java, Python, C#), test tools (Playwright, Selenium, Appium), and cloud/CI tools (Azure DevOps, GitLab, Docker). I seek to drive quality and efficiency in complex engineering environments.
