Sakkaravarthi Rathinasamy

I’m a QA Automation Engineer with 6.4 years of experience across Investment Banking and Digital Banking, focused on building automation that stays fast, stable, and maintainable. I specialize in scalable test automation frameworks using Selenium WebDriver and Playwright.

I led a Selenium-to-Playwright migration that reduced test execution time by 30% and eliminated cross-browser flakiness across Chrome, Firefox, and Edge environments. I also architected Page Object Model (POM) and modular TestNG/Maven frameworks for end-to-end trade and settlement lifecycle validation.

I’m strong in REST API testing with REST Assured and Postman, including suites that validate counterparty account setup, settlement status endpoints, and payment processing services. By integrating GitHub Copilot and Generative AI into test script authoring, I accelerated test script creation by 40% and improved edge-case coverage.

In CI/CD, I configure Jenkins pipelines to trigger automated regression on every code commit, reducing regression cycle time from 3 days to 6 hours. I also manage defect lifecycles in Jira with an average defect closure turnaround of under 48 hours—delivering high-performance, defect-free software in Agile/Scrum teams.
