QA Test Engineer with 6 years in manual and Selenium automation, API testing, and cross-browser quality assurance.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA role where I can own automation frameworks and API testing, partner closely with developers to resolve defects fast, and continuously improve test coverage with reliable CI/CD-driven quality.

I’m a QA Test Engineer with around 6 years of Quality Assurance experience, combining manual testing discipline with automation to accelerate release confidence. I analyze user stories and translate them into test cases, strategies, and detailed plans, including RTM (Requirement Traceability Matrix) and test management for end-to-end coverage.

I’m strong in Selenium WebDriver automation using Java and TestNG, including building and executing smoke/sanity suites per release, reviewing automation results, and improving framework reliability. I also have hands-on experience with API testing using SOAP/REST tools like SoapUI and Postman, plus back-end validation by writing and executing SQL queries to ensure front-end data consistency.

Across my roles, I’ve owned quality reporting and defect workflows in Jira and TestRail, including evidence-based bug tracking, bug review coordination, and follow-up until fixes are verified. I’ve worked extensively with regression, integration, system, and UAT, performed cross-browser testing across major browsers, and contributed to CI/CD readiness through tooling such as Maven, Git, GitHub, GitLab, and Jenkins.
