What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build and maintain reliable automation for web UI and APIs, collaborate in Agile teams, and drive measurable quality gains—faster pipelines, better coverage, and fewer defects—using Selenium, Playwright, and API testing.

I’m a Software Test Engineer with 4+ years of experience ensuring the seamless integration of testing into software delivery. I’ve worked across web application testing and automation, leveraging Java, Selenium WebDriver, JavaScript, and Playwright, with strong understanding of SDLC, STLC, and Agile Scrum methodologies.

At Hexaware, I’ve delivered automation that improves speed and coverage—implementing parallel execution, refactoring suites for shift-left testing, and using tools like Maven, TestNG, Cucumber BDD, POM, and data-driven frameworks. I’ve also handled API testing with Postman and Swagger/REST Assured, created mock test data, monitored the defect life cycle, and improved outcomes such as raising Smoke Pipeline pass percentage from 40% to 95% while automating 100+ test cases.
