What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA Automation Engineer role where I can build scalable Playwright/API automation frameworks, strengthen CI/CD testing, and use AI-assisted techniques to improve efficiency, coverage, and product quality in an Agile team.

As a QA Automation Engineer with around 3 years of experience in Software Testing, I deliver high-quality releases through optimized manual and automation testing strategies. I specialize in Playwright with JavaScript and strengthen quality with API testing and modern automation frameworks.

I design scalable automation frameworks using Page Object Model (POM) and execute UI, functional, regression, integration, and API testing. I also build reliability with AI-assisted testing concepts like AI-based test case generation and self-healing test automation to improve test efficiency.

In my roles across e-commerce, HRM, and banking domains, I create automation scripts for critical workflows, validate request/response payloads with Postman, and perform database validation using SQL queries. I work in Agile teams with CI/CD testing, Git/GitHub, Jenkins, and JIRA to manage defects, trace requirements, and support continuous delivery.
