Senior QA automation engineer scaling E2E frameworks for web, API, and database quality.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Automation QA Engineer with 8+ years of experience designing, implementing, and scaling end-to-end automation frameworks for web, API, and database testing. I’ve driven measurable results—reducing regression cycles by up to 70% and improving release reliability—by embedding automation into CI/CD and applying continuous quality practices in Agile/Scrum teams.
In my recent roles, I built and maintained scalable UI and API automation using Selenium WebDriver, Playwright, and Robot Framework, then integrated automation suites into Jenkins and GitHub Actions to cut regression execution time by 50%. I also lead with QAOps and Shift-Left testing, using user-centric and AI-assisted QA approaches to improve delivery timelines, validate data integrity (PostgreSQL, Snowflake), and act as a quality gatekeeper for cross-functional releases.
