WORK HISTORY
Senior Quality Assurance Automation Engineer @State of California
Houston, TX, US
Lead quality engineering initiatives for enterprise-scale state web applications supporting high-volume concurrent users. • Modernized legacy Selenium (Java) automation framework by migrating critical workflows to Playwright (Python), improving execution speed and cross-browser reliability while eliminating release bottlenecks. • Built robust Cypress (JavaScript) automation suites covering 100+ component and end-to-end UI workflows, preventing UI regressions before UAT. • Architected a reusable Page Object Model (POM) framework supporting both Selenium and Playwright, reducing maintenance overhead by ~30%. • Increased overall automation coverage from 40% to 90%, significantly reducing manual regression effort and production defect leakage. • Implemented AI-assisted test case generation, accelerating automation development and expanding regression coverage for new features. • Deployed AI-based self-healing locators, reducing flaky test failures by 40% and minimizing maintenance effort. • Leveraged AI-driven test impact analysis in CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins) to prioritize regression suites, reducing execution time by 50% without compromising quality. • Automated REST API testing using Postman and Python-based frameworks, validating request/response integrity across 50+ endpoints. • Integrated automation into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Git) with parallel execution and reporting dashboards, enabling continuous testing. • Performed backend data validation using complex SQL queries (Oracle, SQL Server) to ensure data integrity for critical workflows. • Championed shift-left testing practices by collaborating with DevOps and development teams to improve early defect detection. • Mentored junior QA engineers on automation frameworks, AI-driven testing approaches, and best practices, reducing onboarding time and improving team productivity.
