I’m Yoonis Abdurahman, a Senior SDET with 6+ years of experience designing, building, and scaling automated test frameworks for cloud-native and microservices-based applications. I specialize in UI, API, and performance testing, and I’ve built CI/CD integrated test suites that shift quality left and boost release confidence. I love collaborating with cross-functional teams to embed quality checks early in the SDLC, reduce defect leakage, and deliver robust software at speed.
