SKILLS
ABOUT PREKSHA JAIN
I am a Test Automation Architect and QA Lead with 12+ years of experience designing scalable automation and quality engineering strategies that accelerate release cycles and improve production reliability. I specialise in building CI/CD-embedded automation ecosystems across UI, API, and microservices architectures, helping teams deliver high-quality software in complex and regulated environments.Over the years, I’ve led quality engineering across large public sector and enterprise programmes, implementing automation-first testing, risk-based governance, and accessibility compliance (WCAG 2.1/2.2) to ensure audit-ready releases and reduce production risk.My work combines hands-on engineering with technical leadership. I enjoy architecting automation frameworks, optimising CI/CD pipelines, and mentoring QA engineers while collaborating with architects, developers, and stakeholders to improve overall system quality.Key areas of focus include:• Test automation architecture (Playwright, Selenium, Cypress)• API & microservices testing (RestAssured, Pact)• CI/CD pipelines and continuous testing• Quality governance and risk-based testing• Observability-driven quality improvement (Dynatrace)• Accessibility compliance (WCAG)• AI-assisted QA practices using tools like ChatGPT and GitHub CopilotI am passionate about building quality engineering practices that integrate automation, CI/CD pipelines, and observability insights to deliver reliable and resilient systems.
