13+ YOE | Hybrid UI + API Automation | Playwright & Selenium (TypeScript & Python) | Scaling AI-Powered Automation | GenAI & Agentic Quality Engineering | CI/CD Pipelines
Seasoned Quality Engineering professional dedicated to designing, scaling, and maintaining enterprise-grade test automation frameworks. Combines deep expertise in functional, web, and backend services validation. Adept at cross-language architecture using Python and TypeScript to power modern web and robust REST API testing pipelines. Hands-on proficiency in Playwright and Selenium ecosystems, leveraging Pytest and Behave (BDD) to build resilient test suites integrated seamlessly into Jenkins and GitHub Actions CI/CD workflows. Forward-thinking professional and an 𝗔𝗜 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗮𝘀𝘁 actively pioneering cutting-edge, AI-driven, and Agentic QA workflows
- Playwright (TypeScript): Asynchronous test orchestration, custom fixture lifecycles, network mocking/interception (
page.route), multi-auth state storage, and highly scalable test sharding across CI/CD runners. - Selenium WebDriver (Python): Production-grade Page Object Models (POM), custom dynamic wait configurations, parallel execution grids, and legacy framework migrations.
- Postman & Swagger: Designing end-to-end integration workflows, programmatic collection runners, environment/global variable chaining, and writing complex JavaScript-based pre-request and test assertion scripts.
- Hybrid Frameworks: Seamless coupling of UI workflows with live API state injection for rapid database seeding and pre-requisite bypassing.
- GitHub Actions & Jenkins: Creating matrix-based continuous integration builds, automated Slack/Teams notification hooks, HTML report persistence, and headless containerized execution.
Actively modernising my core automation footprint by driving deep technical exploration, framework prototyping, and architectural upskilling in Agentic Quality Engineering.
- Advanced Tech Stack Stack under Integration: Python, Langflow, DeepEval, RAG architectures, n8n workflow engine, OpenAI & open-source LLM APIs.
- Low-Code Automation & Multi-Agent QA Systems: Designing visual automated triage nodes using n8n and Langflow to intercept deployment webhooks, parse application crash traces, and auto-dispatch targeted verification sub-suites.
- LLM Evaluation & RAG Testing Strategy: Implementing validation protocols for Generative AI layers leveraging DeepEval metrics to programmatically benchmark context alignment, faithfulness, hallucination risk, and semantic answer relevancy.
Enterprise-grade multi-tenant web and API testing framework.
- Tech Stack: TypeScript, Playwright, Axios, Faker, Allure Reports.
- Key Features: Combined UI validation with parallel API state preparation, dynamic session reuse, and automatic visual regression tracking.
- CI/CD: Multi-stage workflow via GitHub Actions running on isolated Ubuntu runners.
Scalable BDD engine built for legacy web compatibility and heavy data-driven matrix workloads.
- Tech Stack: Python, PyTest, Selenium WebDriver, Behave (Gherkin), Pandas.
- Key Features: Thread-safe parallel test execution, explicit wait factories, and customized Excel/CSV test data parsing drivers.
- CI/CD: Native integration via Jenkinsfile pipeline stages with strict quality gates.
