Hi, I’m Tejasri Durga, a Senior QA Automation Engineer based in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. I have 8 years of experience delivering high-quality enterprise and financial applications in Agile/Scrum environments, with strong expertise in API and UI automation, performance testing, and database validation using Selenium, Cypress, Karate, and Gatling. I’ve partnered with large financial clients to ensure scalability, reliability, and regulatory compliance, and I’m skilled in CI/CD integration, cloud-based testing on AWS, and end-to-end quality ownership from requirements through production support. I design robust automation strategies for microservices, implement observability dashboards with Splunk and Datadog, and mentor junior engineers. I also validate AI-driven decision models, ensure security and RBAC across APIs, and drive quality across releases from requirements through production support.
