Hi, I'm Sharadhi Hulse, a QA Automation Engineer with 11 years of hands-on testing experience—5+ years focused on automation. I specialize in API and UI automation using Karate, Postman, ReadyAPI, SoapUI, and Selenium, and I design CI/CD-ready automation frameworks that scale across teams. I thrive in Agile/Scrum environments, work across SDLC/STLC, and integrate testing into DevOps pipelines with Jenkins, Azure DevOps, and Git. I mentor junior QA engineers, drive performance testing when needed, and focus on reducing regression time while expanding coverage for API and UI testing.
