What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA Automation/SDET role where I can build scalable frameworks, own API + UI test automation, and enable CI/CD-driven continuous testing with risk-based and shift-left quality practices.

I’m a QA Automation Engineer / SDET with 4.6 years of experience in Quality Engineering, Test Automation Framework Development, API Testing, and CI/CD-driven Continuous Testing. I’ve delivered quality at scale across enterprise SaaS, GRC, CRM, Supply Chain, and Product Management platforms.

In my current role as a Senior Test Engineer, I designed and maintained a scalable Playwright (TypeScript) automation framework using Page Object Model, reusable utilities, and parallel execution—covering 3,500+ automated regression scenarios. I also reduced regression cycle time by 40% and manual testing effort by 60% via Jenkins CI/CD and GitHub integration, while using risk-based testing to identify and report 40+ high-severity pre-release defects.

On the API side, I built Postman API automation collections validating 30+ critical REST endpoints and reduced API defect leakage by 35% while accelerating integration testing by 2×. I’m also experienced with AI-powered test generation (KaneAI) and strong Agile Scrum collaboration—managing 345+ defects end-to-end in Azure DevOps with full traceability to business requirements.
