What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative agile role focused on automation and API testing, leveraging cloud databases and CI/CD to improve quality and delivery.

I am a Senior Quality Assurance professional with strong expertise in automation, manual testing, and agile practices, holding a Master of Engineering in Computer Science and Engineering. I have consistently supported sprint deliveries by performing functional, integration, regression, and UI testing while collaborating closely with developers and stakeholders.

My automation experience spans Selenium WebDriver, Cucumber, Karate, Cypress, AccelQ and Postman, and I have implemented BDD and TDD practices to improve test coverage and reliability. I have developed and migrated automation frameworks and authored test plans, scripts, and summary reports to maintain high-quality releases.

I have practical cloud and database experience using Azure services such as Cosmos DB, Synapse Pipeline, Logic App and EventHub, plus hands-on work with MongoDB for data validation. I have also used CI/CD tools like Maven and Jenkins and defect tracking systems including JIRA and Rally to manage the defect lifecycle.

I am outcome-focused, thrive in collaborative agile teams, and apply a pragmatic approach to debugging and monitoring to ensure stable production deployments. I bring a track record of improving test automation, shortening feedback loops, and supporting continuous delivery.
