Siddharth Patel
@siddharthpatel
QA Automation Test Engineer specializing in C#, Playwright, and TypeScript automation frameworks.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Automation Test Engineer with 7 years of hands-on experience in C#, Playwright, and TypeScript, building robust, scalable QA automation frameworks from scratch. I design end-to-end, regression, smoke, functional, and integration suites using Page Object Model (POM) and BDD/SpecFlow.
At Trakcel Ltd, I delivered a 70% reduction in manual testing effort by authoring comprehensive Playwright and Selenium automation. I also improved scalability by 30% with a microservices architecture (Node.js + Kubernetes) and strengthened API performance by refactoring legacy codebases to improve response times by 30%.
I thrive integrating test automation into CI/CD pipelines via Jenkins and Azure DevOps (ADO) for early defect detection and production-ready releases. I combine API testing (REST Assured, Postman, SoapUI) with performance/load testing (Apache JMeter, Gatling) and collaborate closely in Agile/Scrum while mentoring junior engineers to foster a quality-first culture.
