I’m Preethi Aravindan, a QA Engineer with 6+ years of experience delivering quality across enterprise financial systems and data-driven integrations. I’ve built Selenium-based regression frameworks, performed REST API validation with Postman, and supported CI/CD release pipelines with Azure DevOps. I’ve owned end-to-end STLC across multiple releases in fast-paced Agile environments and driven measurable improvements in automation coverage and program visibility. I thrive in distributed teams, collaborating directly with engineers and product managers to make quality a shared outcome, not just a gate. My work spans complex banking and healthcare domains, where I’ve translated requirements into robust test strategies, mentored peers, and ensured data integrity across multi-system ecosystems.
