Summary
I’m a QA Automation Engineer with over ten years of experience in both manual and automated testing across various industries, including enterprise, financial, healthcare, retail, and government projects. I build and maintain test automation frameworks using Selenium WebDriver with Java and Cypress with JavaScript or TypeScript. I work across API and UI testing, validate data with SQL, and integrate testing into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitLab CI, and Bamboo to support continuous delivery. I’m comfortable working in Agile teams, partnering with developers and product leads, and mentoring teammates to raise quality standards, speed up releases, and meet regulatory requirements.
