I build scalable Playwright and API automation that speeds reliable software delivery.
What I'm looking for
I build scalable test automation and quality practices for US client teams, currently consulting with number8 and using Claude daily in production test engineering.
At Crucial Learning, I established the company’s first Playwright and TypeScript framework, including Page Object Model, reusable fixtures, fragments, and GitHub Actions PR validation gates. I reduced test-authoring time by 40%+ with AI-assisted workflows while owning quality strategy across two Agile teams.
At ProCom Consulting, I led Postman API automation that reduced testing delivery time by about 50% and validated POS payment, inventory, and transaction workflows with SQL-backed data checks. I’ve also introduced Playwright automation from zero, built JMeter performance-testing frameworks, and maintained API coverage across web and mobile projects.
I bring 9+ years in software testing, including regulated insurance applications, alongside hands-on development of JavaScript and TypeScript automation frameworks. I care about practical quality gates, clear traceability, shared standards, and helping teams shift testing left.
