What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can expand automation impact, work in Agile teams, build scalable frameworks, and grow into senior QA/lead responsibilities while contributing to product quality.

I am a QA Engineer with over six years of experience in manual and automation testing, delivering high-quality software across web, mobile, and API domains. I have built and maintained automation frameworks using Selenium WebDriver, Java, and TestNG, and I routinely manage CI pipelines with Jenkins and defect workflows with Jira.

I have strong hands-on experience in test planning, test-case design, test environment setup, SQL-based backend validation, and Salesforce testing, and I hold an ISTQB (CTFL) certification. I thrive in Agile teams, focus on scalable, reusable automation, and seek opportunities to expand my technical scope while improving product quality.
