QA Engineer
Current-
Built the teamβs UI and end-to-end automation framework from scratch using Playwright and Python, replacing repetitive manual regression scripts and cutting regression execution time by 40%.
-
Designed and ran Apache JMeter load tests simulating up to 10,000 concurrent users, uncovering slow-loading endpoints and server bottlenecks that were optimized prior to release.
-
Owned QA responsibility across 3 core software products, partnering closely with developers to catch critical defects early and sharply reduce post-release production escapes.
-
Tested REST APIs with Postman, validating request/response JSON payloads, status codes, query headers, and comprehensive error handling between frontend and backend microservices.
-
Applied risk-based testing to write comprehensive functional, integration, and sanity test cases, systematically prioritizing business-critical user journeys.
-
Wrote complex SQL queries to verify database state transitions and ensure transactions completed with zero data loss or mutation errors.
-
Maintained containerized test environments with Docker and managed the full bug lifecycle in Redmine from triage and reproduction to developer fix and regression retest.
Major Industry QA Projects
Key production systems tested, verified, and automated.
School ERP Management
Web Admin Portal + Parent & Teacher Apps
- Led end-to-end testing across web administration portal and cross-platform mobile apps.
- Validated student onboarding, billing, marksheets, result generation, and transportation.
- Simulated peak enrollment traffic via JMeter, isolating server response bottlenecks before release.
RFID Smart Attendance
Hardware + Cloud Software Sync
- Tested hardware RFID card reader integration with backend ingestion APIs.
- Verified real-time attendance timestamp logging and instantaneous automated SMS triggers.
- Stress-tested edge scenarios like offline buffering and batch re-synchronization on network reconnect.
RFID Smart Inventory
Warehouse Automation & Stock Control
- Tested automated RFID tracking system replacing legacy manual barcode scanning in warehouses.
- Used SQL to confirm digital item counts and physical locations matched warehouse storage bins.
- Validated automated stock in/out ledger reconciliation logic during high-volume transfers.
How I Approach Quality & Testing
Quality isn't just ticking off a checklistβit's understanding how users think, catching edge cases early, and giving developers the confidence to ship fast.
Requirements Analysis & Risk Assessment
I don't just wait for tickets. I dive into specs and talk with devs to map out user journeys and edge cases before writing a line of test code.
Test Automation & Framework Architecture (POM)
I build clean Playwright + Python scripts with Page Object Model so our team runs regression suites in minutes with one click instead of spending entire afternoons clicking manually.
API Contract & Database Integrity Validation
UIs can look great while the backend fails silently. I test REST endpoints directly in Postman and query SQL databases to confirm genuine data integrity.
Performance Benchmarking & Concurrency (JMeter)
I simulate heavy traffic (up to 10k users in JMeter) to uncover memory leaks and slow endpoints in staging, not in front of live customers.
Defect Lifecycle & Agile QA Collaboration
When finding bugs, I share crystal-clear reproduction steps, logs, and video clips in Redmine, then work side-by-side with devs until it's resolved.
