What I'm looking for

I seek a technical leadership role focusing on automation framework development, CI/CD integration, mentoring teams, and delivering high-quality APIs and UI automation in an Agile environment.

I am a QA Automation Engineer with over 12 years of experience specializing in test automation, framework development, and API validation using open-source tools such as Java, Rest Assured, Selenium WebDriver, and Cucumber. I have designed and enhanced POM-based automation frameworks, implemented BDD approaches with Cucumber and Ruby-Cucumber, and delivered automation solutions across web, mobile, and client-server applications within Agile/Scrum teams.

I have led and mentored teams, contributed to an Automation Center of Excellence, and driven CI/CD integration using tools like GitHub Actions and Jenkins. Notable achievements include delivering UFT POCs recognized with a “Star of the Month” award, improving release processes by leading Go/No-Go reviews, and producing performance analysis using JMeter, New Relic, and GCP logs.
