Automation Lead at LPL Financial who cut regression execution time by over 60% with Playwright.

At LPL Financial, I designed and implemented a scalable Playwright automation framework using TypeScript, and integrated it with GitHub Actions. Parallel and distributed execution techniques reduced regression execution time by over 60%.

I also designed end-to-end tests for event-driven workflows involving Kafka, Amazon SQS, SNS, and EventBridge. I validated REST APIs with Postman and used AWS CloudWatch logs to investigate failures.

At HCL Technologies, I developed an AI-powered chatbot using TensorFlow and Python to simplify retrieval from OneNote documents, reducing manual search effort by 70%. The chatbot reached 90% accuracy in recognizing user intents, and I tested its search and summarization across PDF files.

Across my work at MouriTech, HCL Technologies, and Microsoft, I’ve designed automation frameworks and validated applications, APIs, and backend data. My experience includes Java, Selenium, Playwright, SQL, and CI/CD testing with Jenkins and Azure DevOps.
