🎯 15 years delivering measurable quality improvements across insurance, healthcare, and media
👥 Built and led cross-functional automation teams (onshore/offshore) to deliver continuous testing at scale
⏱️ Cut regression cycles by up to 75% through strategic test selection and API-first automation
⚙️ Increased automation throughput ~30% by introducing modular frameworks, parallel execution, and reusable test assets
🚀 Rapid in‑sprint automation delivery — designed frameworks and templates to ship tests alongside features
📊 Data-driven QA: implemented dashboards and metrics (relevance, precision, recall) to track test quality
🔁 Shift-left advocate: integrated tests early in the lifecycle to find defects sooner and reduce rework
🛠️ Reliability-first: introduced self-healing patterns and flakiness reduction practices to stabilize pipelines
🤝 Cross-functional collaborator: partnered with product, infra, and data teams to align test strategy with business goals
📚 Mentorship & enablement: ran team training and code reviews to raise automation maturity and coding standards

Designed and executed test strategies for RAG-based GenAI models, building validation frameworks with Microsoft Semantic Kernel and measuring responses with precision/recall and cosine similarity.
Automated prompt testing and monitoring to reduce manual effort by ~50% and improve early defect detection in GenAI outputs.
Reduced regression cycle time by 75% in one program by shifting E2E UI tests to API-level tests using Rest Assured.
Standardized CI/CD test execution via YAML templates and pipeline integrations, improving cross-environment test flexibility.
Built a Playwright + Gauge BDD automation framework that standardized in-sprint test design and execution. The framework reduced test development overhead, improved maintainability, and achieved over 50% execution time savings through targeted parallelization, optimized orchestration, and converting long-running UI flows to faster API-level validations where appropriate.

LTIMindTree Senior Specialist - Quality Engineering (Present)

Lead a team of 5 automation engineers to develop a hybrid Playwright + Gauge framework using C# and enterprise automation libraries.
Designed validation frameworks for GenAI (RAG) models; created synthetic datasets, prompt variations, and CI/CD pipelines for continuous validation.
Implemented metrics and dashboards to track model hallucination, relevance, precision, and recall; documented failure cases to guide retraining.

Willis Towers Watson Lead Associate

Adopted and drove Cypress-based automation, reducing manual testing by ~60% for feature regression.
Performed API functional testing using Postman and Cypress; maintained E2E tests in Selenium integrated with BrowserStack.

LTI Quality Engineer – Test Lead

Participated in Agile Scrum ceremonies, authored test plans, and led automation for API and UI stacks.
Migrated Selenium-based frameworks to WebDriverIO and implemented JMeter-based performance testing integrated into pipelines.

Cognizant Technology Solutions Associate – Quality Engineering

Tested native, web, and hybrid mobile applications across devices; prepared test artifacts and executed test cycles.

Advanced Test Automation: Playwright MCP server, Robot Framework (exploratory)
Cloud & DevOps: AWS, Azure DevOps (cloud-based testing and infra automation)
Data Analytics for QA: Kibana, Grafana (data-driven testing metrics)
Certifications & ongoing learning:
- AINS24 — Associate in Insurance (AINS) (completed)
- ISTQB — Foundation Level (completed)
- Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) (in progress)
