Client: Bank of New York (BNY), India

• Designed and implemented a scalable, modular automation framework in Java + Selenium WebDriver + TestNG, reducing manual regression effort by 70% and cutting execution time from 4 hours to under 45 minutes via parallel test execution.
• Built comprehensive end-to-end API automation suites using REST Assured, validating RESTful microservices, OAuth tokens, HTTP headers, and complex JSON/XML payloads across distributed architectures.
• Architected and integrated automation suites into Jenkins CI/CD pipelines, enabling continuous testing on every build and reducing release verification time by 60%; implemented DevOps quality gates across UI, API, and integration tests.
• Implemented AI-assisted automation using Windsurf AI to refactor Selenium and Python scripts — enhancing readability, stability, and reusability; applied anomaly detection to identify and reduce flaky tests.
• Developed the Eliza AI Agent to provide rapid, on-demand access to transactional and hydration data, significantly improving analysis efficiency and reducing manual data lookup time.
• Implemented In-Sprint Automation practices, achieving on-time project delivery with direct client appreciation.
• Automated complex end-to-end transaction workflows encompassing UI validation, REST API verification, and backend database checks using advanced SQL queries.
• Developed mobile automation scripts using Appium for Android and iOS platforms across multiple device configurations.
• Implemented cross-browser automation using Selenium Grid (Chrome, Firefox, Edge); reduced flaky tests by 40% via dynamic locators, smart waits, and intelligent retry logic.
• Built a DAT File Generation Utility eliminating manual effort — submitted to Wipro Pragati innovation program.
• Developed Python automation utilities for data parsing, report generation, and API validation — reducing manual QA/UAT regression effort by 30–50%.
• Mentored junior QA engineers in Java, REST Assured, Selenium best practices, and AI-augmented testing approaches, driving +35% growth in automation coverage.

Client: Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina (Blue Cross NC), India

• Implemented AI-assisted test generation to automatically create and optimize test cases, improving coverage and reducing manual design effort across Agile sprints.
• Leveraged AI-based test analysis tools for flaky test identification, anomaly detection in test results, and continuous improvement of automation reliability.
• Built DevOps-driven automation workflows integrated into Jenkins/Git CI/CD pipelines; implemented parallel pipeline execution to reduce build validation time.
• Developed automation frameworks supporting microservices and API-driven architectures, validating service interactions, contract testing, and system-level integration.
• Implemented containerized test environments using Docker for consistent, reproducible, and scalable automation execution across all environments.
• Applied shift-left testing practices by collaborating with developers during design and development phases to improve testability and reduce defect leakage by 30%.
• Developed intelligent test data generation utilities and automated environment provisioning scripts.
• Integrated automated testing with monitoring and logging tools for early detection of production anomalies across microservices.
