What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on engineering role in a principled company that values work-life balance, offers opportunities to learn emerging technologies, and allows me to build scalable automation and CI/CD solutions.

I am a Senior Software Development Engineer in Test with extensive experience designing and building Python-based automation frameworks for web and API testing, configuring CI/CD pipelines, and leading automation teams in Agile environments. I have repeatedly reduced testing time (notably a 70% reduction through script optimization), acted as SME and SPOC for automation deliverables, and driven process improvements that increased coverage and release quality.

I mentor teammates, participate in design discussions, and collaborate with developers to resolve defects and optimize backend validation using SQL/Oracle. I seek roles that allow hands-on engineering, continuous learning of emerging technologies, and alignment with an ethical, balanced workplace culture.
