I am a QA Automation Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable automation for enterprise web, API, and mobile apps across financial services, healthcare, and telecom. I specialize in production-ready test suites using Playwright (JavaScript) and Selenium WebDriver (Java), with strong focus on BDD (Cucumber), CI/CD integration, and AI-assisted testing. I have a track record of cutting regression cycles by over 40%, improving system performance by about 35%, and achieving 95%+ automation coverage. I work hands-on across performance testing (JMeter), mobile automation (Appium/XCUITest), and AI-assisted optimization with GitHub Copilot, thriving in cross-functional teams to translate requirements into robust test strategies and reliable automation solutions.

Work Experience

QA Automation Engineer at Mr. Cooper
December 1, 2024 - Present
Refactored the Playwright JavaScript automation framework with a fixtures layer, custom helper classes, and environment config files to enable cross-environment runs (dev, QA, staging) without code changes; reduced CI failures from ~40% to under 5% in 6 weeks. Implemented Page Object Model (POM) with module-specific page classes for loan application, document upload, and payment, sharing auth and test data via global fixtures for consistent onboarding. Applied Cucumber BDD (Gherkin) for business-critical loan workflows; used plain Playwright for lower-level regression and API tests to keep the suite lean. Diagnosed and resolved flaky tests in CI using trace viewer and video capture, fixed race conditions, and added test-runner retries to flag genuinely unstable tests. Performed API testing with Playwright APIRequestContext, authenticated via REST, triggering loan state transitions through API calls and verifying UI consistency to close front-end/back-end gaps. Integrated Playwright int
QA Engineer at Tanla Platforms
May 1, 2022 - January 1, 2024
Worked on high-throughput telecom messaging platform; established performance testing using JMeter from scratch, scripting top-5 high-traffic API endpoints with production logs, and running load, stress, spike, and endurance tests with Jenkins HTML dashboards for per-build performance trends. Identified a DB connection pool bottleneck (undersized HikariCP) causing degraded throughput beyond 800 concurrent users and implemented backend fixes that improved throughput by 35%. Set up Appium with XCUITest on BrowserStack for iOS automation validating carrier-side messaging client flows, DLT compliance, and promotional/transactional SMS handling. Conducted manual testing for unicode SMS, long-message concatenation, sender-ID validation, opt-out keyword processing, DND registry compliance, and SMPP integration. Configured Grafana/Prometheus dashboards for live CPU/memory/latency monitoring during load tests and traced production slowdown to a missing DB index, validating the fix with targeted
QA Engineer at HealthPlix
October 1, 2019 - May 1, 2022
Started as a Manual QA Engineer validating clinical workflows for an cloud-based EMR and FDA REMS portal; progressed to automation by building a Selenium WebDriver (Java) framework using Page Object Model with a base page and reusable components, and leveraging TestNG for test grouping and parallel execution. Built REST-assured API test collections to validate contracts, status codes, and data integrity; used WireMock to stub third-party insurance payer APIs. Validated Kafka async workflows and HIPAA role-based access/OAuth 2.0 security. Integrated validations into Jenkins pipelines and logged defects in Jira with steps, screenshots, and DB outputs; reconciled UI, API, and database results.
