I have built and maintained automation frameworks using Selenium WebDriver with Java, C#, and Python, as well as Playwright, TestNG, and Cucumber, and integrated them into CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and Bamboo. My experience also includes API testing with Postman, REST Assured, and SOAP UI, Salesforce Health Cloud validation, and ETL and data warehouse testing. Beyond healthcare, I have worked at JP Morgan Chase on financial systems and at Toyota Motors on connected vehicle analytics, where I sharpened my skills in data validation, Agile and Scrum methodologies, defect lifecycle management using JIRA and HP ALM, and cross-functional collaboration. What makes me stand out is that I don't just test functionality. I ensure regulatory compliance, data integrity, and end-to-end business workflow reliability. I bridge the gap between business requirements and technical execution, mentor junior testers, and drive quality metrics that reduce post-production defects. My ability to work across healthcare, finance, and automotive domains gives me a unique, adaptable perspective on risk, automation, and user-centered testing.
