What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values quality and innovation, where I can leverage my automation expertise to drive efficiency and enhance testing processes.

I am a seasoned Quality Engineer with over 13 years of experience delivering high-quality testing solutions across various industries, including Telecom, Finance, and Insurance. My expertise lies in designing automation frameworks and implementing scalable test strategies, ensuring that quality is integrated into every step of the development process. I have a strong command of Java and Selenium WebDriver, which I utilize to create robust test automation solutions.

One of my notable achievements includes building a real-time dashboard at ERP by linking Jenkins and JIRA data, which significantly improved the efficiency of QA leads in identifying flaky tests and planning sprints. At Charles Schwab, I led the initiative to automate over 80% of the regression suite within the first nine months, contributing to a 35% faster release cycle. My commitment to quality and efficiency is further demonstrated through my development of a custom logging utility for Selenium tests at Kaiser Permanente, which enhanced debugging efficiency and reduced issue resolution time by 30%.
