About

Recent CS undergrad from Lovely Professional University (CGPA 8.7, Class of 2026), currently interning as a Software Engineer at Xperi (TiVo), where I build test automation frameworks and developer tooling for FAST Channels and OTT applications. At Xperi, I design UI/API automation using Python, Pytest, Selenium, and Playwright, covering 160+ end-to-end workflows across Smart TV platforms, and built a Jenkins CI pipeline that cut regression execution time by 80% (3.5 hrs → 40 min). I also built an internal evidence-collection tool that automates screenshot capture for Ad Sales campaigns, saving ~4 hours of manual effort per cycle. Beyond QA tooling, I build full-stack products end-to-end. I designed and deployed Aaranal, a production ecommerce platform (Next.js, Node.js, Express, MongoDB) with Razorpay checkout, an admin analytics dashboard, and a custom-order workflow — hosted on AWS (Amplify + EC2) with MongoDB Atlas. Comfortable across the stack: Java, Python, JavaScript, React/Next.js, Node/Express, MongoDB/MySQL, Docker, Jenkins, AWS. Looking for SDET and Software Engineer roles where I can keep building tools and products that remove friction for teams and users.
