Senior QA Automation Engineer

● Designed and maintained a scalable browser automation framework using Playwright, Python, and Pytest, establishing reusable Page Object Model components, fixtures, utilities, and configuration standards.
● Integrated automated UI, API, and asynchronous workflow tests into CI/CD pipelines to provide repeatable execution and timely feedback across environments.
● Used AI coding tools to assist with test design, automation development, and debugging; reviewed generated code, executed the tests, inspected failures, and verified results before accepting changes.
● Performed responsive UI and cross-browser testing using viewport emulation and real mobile devices, identifying layout clipping, overlapping elements, and interaction issues while
distinguishing emulated results from real-device findings.
● Performed accessibility testing across application features using axe-core and manual keyboard navigation checks to identify accessibility barriers and verify fixes.
● Conducted automated and manual API security testing using Playwright to validate authentication, authorization, request payload handling, and response behavior.
● Automated visual regression testing across desktop and mobile screens, combining pixel-by-pixel comparisons with AI-assisted checks to identify differences between Figma designs and the implemented UI.
● Collaborated with developers and product teams to define automation coverage, reusable test strategies, and quality gates aligned with product requirements.
● Investigated test failures and unreliable automation; improved test stability and execution efficiency through parallel execution, appropriate waits, and framework maintenance.
● Built test reporting with historical execution records, trends, and failure analytics to make test results and product-quality issues visible to developers and stakeholders.
● Developed automation bots for complex user journeys and repetitive business processes, reducing reliance on repeated manual executi

● Led QA for feature releases, including AI features, and owned production release QA sign-off for new functionality such as referral and pricing features.
● Assessed release readiness with developers and stakeholders, communicating tested areas, outstanding risks, defects, and coverage gaps before production approval.
● Designed and executed smoke, regression, and end-to-end test coverage across PR, staging, and production environments using Playwright, Cucumber, and TypeScript.
● Integrated Postman and Newman API tests into CI pipelines to provide consistent validation across deployments.
● Mentored junior QA engineers in automation, exploratory testing, defect reporting, and QA methodologies, supporting consistent testing practices across the team.
● Built Jira dashboards and issue tracking workflows to improve visibility into defect trends, delivery progress, and outstanding work.
● Investigated and reported post-release production issues, communicating risks and testing gaps to developers and stakeholders to inform corrective actions and coverage improvements.
● Improved QA processes through shift-left testing and feature-flag verification; aligned test cases with acceptance criteria and product requirements.

● Built a reusable Maven-based test automation framework using Java, Selenium WebDriver, and Cucumber, applying Page Object Model and BDD practices to improve maintainability and reduce repetitive manual testing.
● Integrated automated tests into Jenkins CI/CD pipelines to provide repeatable regression execution and timely feedback to developers.
● Validated REST APIs and backend data using REST Assured, Postman, JDBC, and SQL across MySQL and Oracle databases.
● Maintained cross-browser automation as application interfaces changed, investigating failures and updating tests to preserve reliable coverage.
● Collaborated with developers through Jira defect tracking and Agile planning to clarify requirements, verify fixes, and maintain appropriate test coverage.

● Designed and maintained automation frameworks and test scripts using Java, Selenium WebDriver, and TestNG, supporting reusable test execution, reporting, and functional coverage.
● Performed REST API testing using REST Assured to validate service responses and verify expected application behavior.
● Executed automated regression and smoke tests using Selenium and TestNG, identifying defects and verifying fixes to support application stability throughout development cycles.
● Collaborated with developers to integrate automated UI and API tests into CI/CD pipelines, providing continuous validation and timely feedback on changes.

● Performed manual testing of web and mobile applications, ensuring that all functional requirements were met and identifying critical bugs early in the development cycle.
● Created and executed detailed test cases and test plans based on business requirements, covering various testing types, including functional, regression, smoke, and user acceptance testing (UAT).
● Reviewed and analyzed business requirements to ensure comprehensive test coverage, contributing to the overall quality and reliability of the application; and collaborated with developers and QA teams to track and verify fixes.

● Experienced in Coal Fired based power generating system in an operation and maintenance department
● Extensive experience in resolving critical electrical failures, minimizing production interruptions and resolving electrical issues promptly

Final Year Project:
● Designed and developed a Quadcopter using brushless DC motors, Electronic Speed Controllers (ESCs), and an Arduino-based flight controller, demonstrating stable flight control through PID tuning and wireless communication modules.
