Available to hire
I’m a senior SDET and AI-driven Quality Architect with 7+ years of experience owning quality end-to-end across complex, multi-channel systems and integrations. I treat testing as an engineering discipline—designing scalable automation frameworks and test strategies that confidently validate UI, APIs, and backend data behavior against business rules and acceptance criteria.
I love turning messy quality challenges into reliable, observable delivery pipelines. From building Playwright/Cypress/Selenium suites with resilient architecture and strong reporting, to enforcing defect lifecycle practices with RCA and log-based debugging, I help teams shift-left quality through CI/CD automation and measurable outcomes—speeding up readiness, improving stability, and preventing production leakage.
