Quality Assurance Automation Engineer leveraging AI to streamline testing efficiency.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Quality Assurance Automation Engineer at Cognizant, where I contribute to building AI-integrated test frameworks for web, API, and desktop applications. I focus on automation that improves reliability and operational efficiency, especially as systems become more AI-driven.
Before my current role, I worked as a Quality Assurance Engineer intern at Cognizant, which strengthened my end-to-end testing mindset and helped me sharpen practical automation skills. I’m comfortable working across tools and test workflows to ensure quality is consistent and scalable.
I also bring a strong AI foundation from my academic background in Computer Science and Engineering, alongside hands-on experience in machine learning and data science. As a Machine Learning and Data Science Executive at GDSC PRMITR, I mentored 200+ students, facilitated workshops on ML model development using Python, TensorFlow, and scikit-learn, and curated resources on deep learning, computer vision, and NLP.
In internships like EduSkills Foundation, I implemented object detection and image classification models using CNNs, improving search accuracy by 30% through optimized architectures and transfer learning. I’m motivated by solving real-world business challenges with innovative solutions, and I enjoy collaborating with teams to deliver technical excellence.
