Yash Patel

Software Engineer with a Master's in Applied Computing and a proven track record building and shipping production software in Java and JavaScript. Solved 150+ DSA problem; 4th place institution rank on GeeksforGeeks.

Software Engineering Consultant at FDM Group Canada INC. (2026-03 – Present)

• Designed, developed, and maintained automated functional and integration tests for a 30+ endpoint RESTful API suite using RestAssured, validating HTTP status codes, JSON payloads, and data integrity on a legacy enterprise application.
• Contributed to a scalable UI and API automation framework using Cucumber (BDD), Selenium WebDriver (Page Factory), JUnit, and RestAssured, improving maintainability and regression execution efficiency.
• Identified, documented, and tracked 60+ defects per month in Jira; collaborated with developers and business analysts to prioritize issues, validate fixes, and ensure regression coverage before release.
• Participated in requirement and design discussions to surface testability risks early; built an AI-assisted workflow to generate test cases from acceptance criteria, accelerating shift-left quality and test documentation.
• Part of a banking-client POC implementing AI-agent workflows in QA, targeting escaped production defects from untested scenarios, heavy daily UAT/E2E/regression, and the cost of a dedicated VM per tester.
• Helped implement the agent pipeline: coverage analysis, missing-test generation, human QE review, execution, and a daily pack for development leads; on-demand environments were wiped at end of day.

Software Developer Intern at Semper8 International Ltd. (2025-09 – 2026-02)

• Developed and maintained production Java software on AWS; debugged legacy codepaths and shipped fixes that improved stability under concurrent load.
• Designed and implemented a low-latency WebRTC networking stack in Java (STUN/TURN, TCP/UDP edge cases), achieving 70–90% direct peer connections across restrictive networks.
• Took ownership of incident triage end-to-end—reproduced failures, validated fixes, and verified closure despite ambiguous production symptoms and tight release windows.

Application Developer Intern at Techno IT Hub (2023-01 – 2023-04)

• Executed functional and API testing on Android and Spring Boot REST modules, validating responses and MongoDB data accuracy; identified and resolved defects in Firebase authentication and query performance prior to Google Play release.
• Integrated automated build and test checks into Jenkins CI/CD pipelines with Docker, supporting continuous delivery and confirming release stability across deployment cycles.
• Used Git branching and pull-request workflows while collaborating with developers on defect fixes and release validation.
