About

"Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of intelligent effort." With 11 years of experience in Test Automation, I specialize in taking automation to the next level — building frameworks that are not just robust and scalable, but also designed to solve real business challenges. I bring deep expertise in Selenium WebDriver, Java, Cucumber, TestNG, Maven, JUnit, and API testing with Rest Assured. Beyond coding, my strength lies in integrating automation seamlessly into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins) to accelerate releases and ensure high-quality delivery. Having worked in Agile environments with tools like JIRA, I design data-driven and hybrid frameworks that improve coverage, reduce execution time, and enhance overall system performance. More importantly, I mentor teams, define strategy, and transform testing into a driver of success rather than a bottleneck. Passionate about flawless software delivery, I continuously learn and adapt to modern testing trends — from cloud and containerized testing to AI-driven automation — to stay ahead of the curve. 📩 Let’s connect and explore how we can build smarter, faster, and future-ready systems together.

Work experience

Staff QA Engineer at e2open, Sep 2025 - Present · 8 mos, Pune District, Maharashtra, India, I’m a results-driven QA Automation Engineer passionate about building frameworks that are not just reliable, but smart and scalable. Over the years, I’ve worked across Selenium, Cucumber, and CI/CD ecosystems — optimizing performance, improving reporting, and turning testing into a true engineering discipline. Recently, I led a framework optimization initiative that transformed a 7-hour regression run into a 91-minute parallel execution — an 80% performance improvement achieved without redesigning the architecture. I also built a Python-powered reporting dashboard from scratch, integrating visual analytics through Matplotlib to help teams make faster, data-backed release decisions. I believe automation should serve as both a safety net and a source of insight — bridging quality, speed, and innovation. Always exploring the intersection of testing, data visualization, and intelligent tooling to push boundaries in how QA adds business value.
