@umairsarwar
QA Automation Engineer specializing in Playwright/Cypress automation, mobile/web testing, and CI/CD-driven releases.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Software QA Engineer with 4+ years in manual and automation testing, focused on delivering reliable web app and mobile app quality. I’ve handled complete QA lifecycle work—from requirement understanding to final delivery—while building and maintaining automation suites with Playwright and Cypress.
Across Agile teams, I design test cases from user stories, manage defects in JIRA and Asana, and strengthen releases by integrating automated tests into GitLab pipelines. I also support thorough manual coverage (functional, regression, UI/UX, smoke, sanity, exploratory, and UAT) for Android and iOS, partnering closely with developers and PMs to improve requirements and outcomes.
