About

QA Automation Engineer with a strong focus on multi-cloud SaaS applications and CI/CD-driven delivery. I have 4+ years of experience developing and maintaining automation frameworks in Java and JavaScript, leveraging Selenium, WebdriverIO, and Cucumber for behaviour-driven testing. I specialize in regression and cross-browser testing, validating applications deployed on AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI using Spinnaker and Harness. By integrating automated tests into CI/CD pipelines, I help teams achieve stable releases while reducing defect leakage. I also contribute to code reviews, knowledge-sharing sessions, and mentoring, ensuring framework scalability and team alignment. I am motivated by delivering reliable automation solutions that accelerate Agile delivery, improve software quality, and support high-performing development teams.
