Rohit Kumar

I am a Senior Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) and Automation Lead with over 12 years of experience architecting robust quality ecosystems for global leaders in finance, telecommunications, and government sectors. Throughout my career, I have specialized in transforming legacy testing processes into high-velocity, automated CI/CD pipelines that ensure software is both resilient and scalable.

What I Have Done:
Most recently, at the Government of Prince Edward Island, I served as the solo architect for a comprehensive API automation strategy. I successfully migrated 38 core APIs to a modern Playwright and JavaScript framework and engineered an automated Azure DevOps pipeline that provides real-time transparency via Microsoft Teams. My background also includes significant tenures at Warner Brothers Discovery (CNN), Scotiabank, and RBC, where I led full-stack automation efforts across web, mobile, and complex middleware integrations.

My Technical Expertise:
-Languages & Frameworks: Expert-level proficiency in Java, JavaScript, and Python, with deep hands-on experience in Playwright, Selenium, WebDriver.io, and Rest Assured.

• Infrastructure & DevOps: Proven track record of building and managing CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, Jenkins, and GitHub Actions.
  -Performance & Observability: Specialized in load testing and production monitoring using Artillery and Grafana to identify and resolve system bottlenecks.

What Makes Me Stand Out:
-AI-Driven Efficiency: I am at the forefront of the “Agentic AI” revolution in QA. I actively leverage Generative AI (GitHub Copilot, Claude) and specialized AI QA agents to accelerate script generation, discover complex edge cases, and automate root-cause analysis for test failures.
-Bridge-Builder: I don’t just find bugs; I improve the Developer Experience (DX). By creating custom utility scripts and fostering early-stage requirement reviews with stakeholders, I ensure quality is a shared responsibility across the entire SDLC.
-Domain Versatility: My experience spans highly regulated industries—including Banking (Guidewire, Swift payments), Insurance, and Healthcare—giving me a unique perspective on maintaining data integrity and security at scale.

I am passionate about building intelligent, self-healing automation that allows engineering teams to ship code faster and with absolute confidence.
