QA Automation Engineer with 2 years of experience building scalable test automation frameworks for fast-moving product teams. Delivered a 35% reduction in manual regression effort by architecting a Playwright + TypeScript end-to-end framework with CI/CD integration. Ships 150+ tested scenarios per sprint, catches 40-60 defects per release cycle, and keeps quality gates tight without slowing down delivery.
Deep expertise in API validation (Postman, RestAssured), cross-browser testing, SQL data validation, and Agile workflows. Experienced with Selenium WebDriver, BDD/Cucumber, and Automation Anywhere RPA. Experienced in test planning, test strategy definition, and defect tracking.
Experience
QA Automation Engineer - Intellius Recode Pvt. Ltd
(2024-01)
- Reduced manual regression effort by 35% by building a scalable Playwright + TypeScript end-to-end automation framework from the ground up, covering 15–20 critical user workflows.
- Designed a Page Object Model (POM) architecture that reduced test maintenance overhead and enabled reuse across multiple test modules — keeping the suite maintainable as the product scaled.
- Achieved zero browser-specific regressions by implementing cross-browser coverage across Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit on every automated test run.
- Cut feedback loop from hours to minutes by integrating the test suite into Jenkins and GitHub Actions CI/CD pipelines, triggering automated execution on every pull request.
- Built API automation layers with Postman and RestAssured, validating REST request/response contracts and backend logic as part of end-to-end test flows.
- Eliminated flaky tests by implementing robust Playwright locator strategies, custom assertions, and synchronization logic — ensuring deterministic, reliable execution in CI.
- Authored 80+ test scenarios and 300+ test cases from requirements, covering functional, regression, smoke, sanity, and UAT across 2–3 product areas per release.
- Executed 150+ test cases per sprint, logging 40–60 defects per cycle with clear severity, priority, and reproduction steps — accelerating developer fix velocity.
- Validated 50+ bug fixes per release, performing targeted regression runs to confirm zero regressions before each production deployment.
- Surfaced edge-case and usability defects through structured exploratory testing, consistently expanding defect detection beyond scripted coverage.
- Contributed to QA strategy in Agile ceremonies (stand-ups, sprint planning, retrospectives), influencing test prioritization and release readiness decisions.
- Executed SQL queries for backend data validation, verifying business rule accuracy and data consistency across frontend and legacy AS400 systems.
- Performed integration testing between web applications and AS400, preventing data integrity issues from surfacing in business-critical supply chain reports.
- Resolved production bot incidents within SLA by monitoring Automation Anywhere workflows and performing root cause analysis (RCA) via ServiceNow.
- Maintained and enhanced RPA workflows, handling exception management and delivering bot improvements with zero downtime impact on production.
- Wrote Python scripts for post-deployment validation and ad-hoc automation support, reducing manual verification time on production fixes.
