About Prashant Kumar Manjhi
Senior SDET with 6+ years of experience designing and building scalable, full-stack automation solutions across Web, Mobile, and APIs.I specialize in architecting automation frameworks from scratch using Selenium, Appium, Playwright (TypeScript), and Rest Assured, with strong focus on CI/CD integration and performance engineering using Locust.My experience includes testing microservices-based and distributed systems, validating backend logic (API contracts, data consistency), and analyzing system performance metrics such as latency, throughput, and resource utilization.Recently, I have been working on AI-augmented testing, leveraging LLMs (ChatGPT, Claude) and MCP-based workflows for intelligent test case generation, debugging, and improving automation efficiency.Key strengths:• Full-stack test automation (UI, API, backend validation) • Microservices & distributed systems testing • Performance, load & stress testing • CI/CD pipelines and quality engineering • AI testing (LLMs, prompt engineering, agentic workflows) I enjoy solving complex system-level problems, improving release quality, and building scalable, intelligent testing solutions.Currently exploring opportunities in:• Hybrid roles (Noida / Gurgaon / Delhi NCR) • Remote roles (India / global) Open to connecting with teams building high-scale systems, AI-driven products, and modern engineering platforms.
