Shiva Nagilla
@shivanagilla
I build reliable API, UI, and data quality automation for enterprise systems.
What I'm looking for
At ValueLabs, I lead QA for United Airlines' Crew Foundation Architecture, validating business-critical airline workflows across 60+ REST APIs and cloud-based data exchanges between Cosmos DB and AWS databases.
I've designed and maintained 200+ UI automated test cases using PyTest, Robot Framework, Selenium WebDriver, TestNG, and Playwright. I also developed Python-based AI utilities using Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT that save approximately 6–7 hours of manual validation per sprint.
Previously at Cognizant, I validated ETL, Data Warehouse, and Master Data Management applications for Takeda Pharmaceuticals through SQL, Informatica PowerCenter, Amazon Redshift, AWS S3, and end-to-end data reconciliation. I enjoy improving release quality, mentoring QA engineers, and building efficient automation solutions.
