What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level QA Automation / SDET role where I can build and scale UI/API automation, integrate tests into CI/CD, and work in an Agile, fast-paced product environment focused on quality and faster release cycles.

I’m a final-year Computer Science undergraduate focused on QA automation and SDET work, with hands-on experience building Java-based testing frameworks. I design both UI and API regression suites using Selenium, TestNG, and REST Assured, with an emphasis on reliability and maintainability.

In my UI automation project, I created a reusable Selenium WebDriver + TestNG framework using Maven and OOP principles. I automated 40+ test cases for core user flows and integrated execution into a CI/CD pipeline with Jenkins, reducing manual regression effort by 60% and managing defects in JIRA through Agile sprint cycles.

For API testing, I built a Java-based REST automation framework with REST Assured and TestNG to validate CRUD operations and response schemas. I implemented 30+ automated API test cases, used Postman for exploratory testing, and cross-verified API responses against backend data with SQL to ensure consistency.

I’m looking for an entry-level QA Automation / SDET role where I can apply strong problem-solving and automation engineering skills in a fast-paced product environment. I’m energized by Agile collaboration and continuous improvement—turning test coverage into faster release cycles and better product quality.
