About

🚀 The gap between "Tester" and "Modern SDET" is widening. I build the systems that close it. By day, I am an SDET @ Zingbus. I don't just write scripts; I build scalable test architectures & processes. I focus on delivering testing speed, shifting validation left to the API layer, and ensuring flawless CI/CD pipeline integration. (Goodbye flaky UI tests, hello sub-second API validations). By night, I am the founder of my SDET Career Coaching practice. The industry has moved past "writing 50 lines of Selenium wrapper code." Today's market demands speed, AI-augmented tooling, and pipeline ownership. I help Manual QAs and Junior Testers upgrade their tech stack so they can crack Senior SDET interviews and secure 50%+ salary hikes. 🛠️ The 2026 Tech Blueprint I Use & Teach: Smart Automation: Playwright, Selenium, RestAssured Architecture: Page Object Model, Data-Driven Frameworks DevOps & CI/CD: Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Docker The Edge: AI-Augmented QA (Copilot/Cursor) & API-First Testing 🤝 How we can work together: 1. Resume Audits: I will tear down your "2023 Tester" resume and rebuild it with the exact architecture keywords Tier-1 product companies are hunting for right now. 2. 1:1 Mentorship: A step-by-step roadmap to go from Manual QA to SDET. We cover everything from handling dynamic Shadow DOMs to building plug-and-play GitHub Actions pipelines.
