About

Professional summary

I am a Senior QA Automation Engineer with more than five years of experience designing, developing, and implementing enterprise-level test automation frameworks. I specialize in building scalable, maintainable automation solutions that improve quality, release confidence, and delivery speed.

I have hands-on experience with Tricentis Tosca, Python, Robot Framework, Playwright, JavaScript, and Java. My testing background covers end-to-end web, mobile, API, database, integration, and performance testing.

I have built codeless automation frameworks that enable manual QA engineers to create, execute, and maintain automated tests with minimal programming knowledge. These initiatives have helped teams achieve approximately 80–85% regression automation coverage and reduce manual regression effort.

I work closely with developers, business analysts, and QA teams in Agile environments to identify automation opportunities, define test coverage, manage defects, and support high-quality releases. I am experienced in release regression execution, test result analysis, and reporting through tools such as JIRA and Confluence.

I have implemented CI/CD-driven automated smoke and regression testing using Azure DevOps. I also mentor QA engineers in automation practices, Git-based version control, framework usage, and modern testing technologies.

I am motivated by modernizing QA practices, expanding continuous testing capabilities, and helping teams adopt reliable automation solutions across web, mobile, API, and database applications.
