Crafting Quality
at Scale

I'm a Senior QA Automation Engineer / SDET with an AI-first mindset — I reach for GenAI tools before writing boilerplate, and let AI accelerate every stage of my testing workflow.

With 5+ years at Oracle, Adobe, and Informatica, I focus on test architecture and scalable automation — CI/CD, multi-cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI), and containerized testing with Docker and Kubernetes. I've delivered 60% faster regression cycles, 85% lower AWS spend, and 95% automation code coverage through reusable UI/API frameworks and high-signal reporting.

I use GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT / GPT-4, and OpenAI Codex for test generation, debugging, and faster automation delivery. I don't just find bugs — I build systems that prevent them and keep releases safe at scale.

Where I've
Made Impact

Oracle

Senior Member of Technical Staff
Apr 2025 — Present Remote, India
  • Cut weekly environment replication and validation cycle time 60% by building an autonomous Jenkins pipeline (provisioning → multi-bundle deploy → regression → upgrades) with interactive failure recovery (rerun/proceed/abort), accelerated with GenAI (Copilot, ChatGPT) and prompt engineering.
  • Engineered a Zero Downtime (ZDT) test orchestration framework — parallel runs, patch detection, and job stop/resume tracking — eliminating manual coordination during patch windows.
  • Increased backend validation depth with REST API automation (Java, TestNG) for Oracle Fusion and Python wrappers for authentication, activity tracking, and job monitoring across OCI pods.
  • Reduced status-checking and manual follow-ups with real-time dashboards, stage-wise automated email notifications, and end-to-end pipeline visibility across teams.

Adobe

Senior Software Engineer in Test
Nov 2022 — Apr 2025 Bangalore, India
  • Led functional and automation testing for Adobe ColdFusion across 5+ platforms (macOS, Windows, Linux, Unix) and cloud environments including AWS, Azure, GCP, Docker, and Kubernetes.
  • Reduced regression test runtime by 60% and analysis time by 70% through priority-based test suites and baseline.
  • Achieved 85% AWS cost reduction by automating RDS shutdowns, Lambda scripts, and tighter usage across EC2, S3, IAM, and security groups.
  • Enhanced a legacy regression tool by adding new features, reducing test execution time by 30% and improving workflow efficiency for 20+ developers and testers.
  • Achieved 100% UI test automation coverage using Selenium, Cucumber (BDD), and TestNG in Java, fully integrated into Jenkins CI/CD pipelines.
  • Designed and maintained CI/CD pipeline workflows, streamlining GitHub Webhook lifecycles for seamless deployments across internal applications.
  • Executed performance and microservices testing using JMeter, analyzing metrics via InfluxDB and Grafana to identify bottlenecks and validate SLAs.
