- Architected and implemented a robust, hybrid UI test automation framework leveraging Playwright MCP, GitHub Copilot, LLM-based coding assistants (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude), Python, Pytest, and Pega Scenario Tests. This strategic approach accelerated feedback loops within CI/CD pipelines, reducing manual smoke and regression testing time by over 80%. - Leveraged Playwright MCP and LLM-based coding assistants (OpenAI, Anthropic Claude) to scale DCU's test automation efforts, enabling non-technical testers to create automation scripts from AI-driven prompting, democratizing automation and accelerating coverage. - Architected and deployed a comprehensive end-to-end API automation framework utilizing Playwright API, Python, and Pytest. Streamlined the CI/CD pipeline through GitLab integration and established real-time quality metrics via Grafana dashboards, enabling automated regression testing and live quality analytics. - Led the design and implementation of an automated end-to-end testing strategy, including a UAT suite, which reduced manual testing from a full day to minutes and accelerated production deployments. - Collaborated with DevOps to establish and deploy a CI/CD pipeline (GitLab), seamlessly integrating automated tests to enable faster and more dependable releases.

- Led a remote agile team of 3 to design and implement a robust, automation framework using Playwright C#, and SpecFlow (BDD), leveraging low-code solution (CodeGen) to achieve 90% test coverage and an 85% reduction in regression testing time. - Implemented 300+ automated test cases as part of a migration from Selenium to Playwright, ensuring 90% test automation coverage across critical application modules.
