Hi, I’m Siddhesh Sawant, a Software Development Engineer in Test based in Vancouver, BC. I design and maintain scalable Python-based API and integration test frameworks (Pytest) for RESTful services, applying shift-left testing principles to catch defects early and ensure robust authentication, error handling, and edge-case coverage. I enjoy collaborating with backend engineers to optimize performance, containerize test environments with Docker, and build reliable CI/CD pipelines that improve release velocity. In my previous roles at New/Mode and Faisal Labs, I reduced regression escapes by 45%, cut API latency by 30%, and lowered CI-related failures by 40%. I’m passionate about turning complex test data into actionable insights, automating end-to-end workflows, and documenting processes to help teams ship high-quality software.…Hi, I’m Siddhesh Sawant, a Software Development Engineer in Test based in Vancouver, BC.

Web Developer at New/Mode

January 1, 2025 - September 23, 2025

Frontend modernization using React and TypeScript to reduce redundancy and improve form completion rates; built a scalable GraphQL API with Prisma ORM for efficient data fetching, reducing response times; added localization with react-i18next for multi-language support; automated test coverage with Cypress, reducing manual QA and speeding up deployments.

Web Developer at New/Mode

January 1, 2025 - September 23, 2025

Web Developer responsible for rebuilding onboarding components with React and TypeScript to reduce redundancy by 30% and improve form completion by 15%. Implemented a scalable GraphQL API using Prisma ORM, reducing response times by 20%. Added localization with i18next for multi-language support and promoted internationalization standards. Automated end-to-end test coverage with Cypress, cutting manual QA effort by 80% and shortening deployments from two days to four hours.

Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET) at New/Mode

January 1, 2024 - January 1, 2025

Designed and maintained scalable API and integration test frameworks in Python (Pytest) for RESTful services, applying shift-left testing principles with fixtures and layered assertions to validate authentication, error handling, and edge cases, reducing regression escapes by 45%. Implemented API automation with database-level validation using REST assertions and SQL queries to verify side effects and transactional correctness, collaborating with backend engineers to identify inefficiencies that contributed to a 30% reduction in API latency. Containerized test environments using Docker and Docker Compose, creating isolated, reproducible stacks for microservices and databases, which reduced environment-related CI failures by 50% and improved local-to-CI parity. Built and optimized CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions, integrating containerized test execution, regression gating, and environment-specific configuration, preventing unstable merges and reducing deployment-blocking failures by 4

QA Automation Engineer at Faisal Labs

January 1, 2023 - August 1, 2023

Executed manual smoke, UAT, and regression testing by authoring structured test cases in TestRail and validating end-to-end user workflows before each release, reducing production defects by 30% and enabling faster deployment approvals. Developed automated end-to-end test suites using Cypress, implementing reusable selectors, fixtures, and environment-specific configs, which reduced repetitive manual regression effort by 40% and improved test reliability across releases.
