QA Lead at Tailwnd.com, advancing AI-powered learning platform testing with reusable Web, Mobile, and API automation.
What I'm looking for
At Tailwnd.com, I lead QA automation for an AI-powered adaptive learning platform, developing reusable solutions across Web, Mobile, and API testing. I integrated REST Assured and Postman API suites with Jenkins CI/CD, and use ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, and Claude AI to improve automation productivity.
At CarDekho Group, I led automation across consumer- and dealer-facing finance platforms, building a hybrid framework and API automation for finance workflows. I also directed Jenkins test execution and mentored automation engineers.
Earlier, at Enco Engineers Combine Pvt. Ltd., I progressed from manual testing into automation and developed Selenium scripts and a TestNG framework. I automated a machine-availability module, reducing its execution time from approximately two hours to 5–10 minutes.
