About

I’m a software engineer focused on automation and test systems, with hands-on production experience building end-to-end test frameworks from scratch using Python and Java. I design reliable, maintainable automation architectures (including Page Object Model patterns and reusable utility libraries) and use tools like Selenium WebDriver, Pytest, and Provar to validate complex UI and API workflows.

In my day-to-day work at PwC India, I develop and debug production-grade code, integrate REST API testing with UI regression coverage, and support faster releases through CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps. I enjoy working independently on detailed specifications in Agile teams, and I’m especially comfortable reviewing code, diagnosing root causes, and writing clear technical feedback that helps teams ship with confidence.
