What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my automation expertise to enhance software quality and drive continuous improvement.

I am a dedicated Test Automation Engineer with over 5 years of experience in designing and implementing scalable automation frameworks for both web and mobile platforms. My expertise lies in streamlining end-to-end QA processes, including test planning, case development, execution, and defect management, to enhance software quality and delivery speed. I have a proven track record of modernizing legacy systems and accelerating release cycles using tools like Selenium and Appium.

Throughout my career, I have leveraged cloud-based platforms such as BrowserStack, Microsoft App Center, and LambdaTest for cross-platform and cross-device testing. I am a strong advocate for CI/CD practices and agile collaboration, continuously seeking improvement in quality engineering. My experience includes mentoring developers and QA engineers, setting up CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins and GitLab, and delivering detailed QA reports for stakeholder visibility.
