What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a QA automation role where I can build maintainable Selenium/API/mobile frameworks, strengthen CI/CD-driven quality, and partner with product and engineering to catch defects early and improve release confidence.

I’m a QA Automation Engineer with 6+ years of experience in Manual Testing, Automation Testing, API Testing, and Mobile Application Testing across Agile/Scrum projects. I focus on translating business requirements into strong test scenarios, cases, and edge-case coverage to protect quality early.

I build scalable automation frameworks using Selenium WebDriver with Java, Maven, Cucumber (BDD), TestNG, and the Page Object Model. For APIs, I automate with Rest Assured and Postman, validating status codes, headers, request/response payloads, and JSON schemas; for mobile, I use Appium with real-device execution via BrowserStack.

I’ve also worked with Playwright (JavaScript) to improve test coverage and reduce manual effort using parallel execution and cross-browser testing. I integrate automated suites into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, track defects and requirement traceability in JIRA, and collaborate closely with developers, product owners, and stakeholders to deliver reliable releases.
