- Currently working in a Center of Excellence (COE) initiative-focused team, responsible for identifying quality engineering opportunities and driving cross-team improvements. I analyze recurring testing challenges across squads, design scalable solutions, and develop reusable frameworks, tools, and testing standards to be adopted company-wide. This includes defining best practices for test automation, data validation strategies, and API/UI testing approaches, managing centralized CI/CD pipeline configurations and continuously improving build and delivery workflows, as well as evaluating and adopting AI-driven solutions — including the development of integrations leveraging Model Context Protocol (MCP) — to enhance and modernize quality engineering practices across teams, helping increase reliability, reduce duplication of effort, and accelerate delivery through standardized approaches. - Developed automated data validation tests using Oracle SQL, JUnit, Mockito and Java, ensuring data accuracy and integrity across complex system integrations. - Coordinated test environments with data engineers and used Control-M for job scheduling, increasing automation reliability and reducing manual overhead. - Embedded API-based validations into CI/CD pipelines, enabling continuous quality feedback and faster defect prevention.

- Designed and implemented a Quality Discovery Framework to identify, prioritize, and manage quality initiatives within the team, resulting in clearer visibility into technical debt, more effective backlog planning, and improved cross-team alignment on quality KPIs. - Expanded and optimized end-to-end test coverage using Selenium and Cucumber, strategically identifying high-value test scenarios. This led to a 66% reduction in regression test execution time, going from 24 hours (3 days) to 8 hours (1 day), significantly accelerating release cycles. - Refactored and streamlined existing Selenium test suite, removing duplicated or unnecessary scenarios, decoupling UI interactions, and enhancing test stability through better code structure and reusable methods — reducing flaky test rates and improving pipeline reliability. - Redesigned and organized test scenarios in Zephyr, grouping them by functional area and execution scope (regression, e2e, ui, mobile), which facilitated test planning, maintenance, and reviewer understanding while ensuring alignment with feature ownership across squads.

- Developed a performance testing framework using Grafana K6, integrating it into CI/CD pipelines and establishing continuous performance validation, which helped detect bottlenecks early and avoid production impact. - Built and automated API testing using Node.js, Axios, and Jest, reducing regression time and increasing reliability of microservices testing. - Designed integration tests between AWS services such as Lambda and S3, improving confidence in distributed workflows and reducing manual validation effort. - Applied the Shift-Left Testing model by embedding QA activities in both Discovery and Delivery phases, resulting in improved story quality and fewer post-release issues. - Enhanced observability of automated tests and services through AWS CloudWatch, Grafana, and Datadog, enabling real-time validation of logs and traces. - Facilitated continuous improvement by supporting Agile process evolution and providing knowledge transfer to development teams on quality engineering and modern testing techniques.

- Led the complete migration of the E2E test automation framework from Protractor to Cypress, starting from architecture rebuild to scenario mapping and documentation — improving test reliability, maintainability, and execution time. - Developed and delivered a QA mentorship program, guiding engineers in applying Shift-Left Testing, improving test design, and building a strong culture of quality ownership. - Defined and led the QA discovery process, giving visibility into test-related opportunities and enabling cross-functional prioritization aligned with business goals. - Strengthened collaboration with developers through earlier and more meaningful QA participation in story lifecycle phases, leading to reduced defect leakage.
