About

I build test infrastructure from scratch — not just scripts, but scalable automation frameworks designed to ship quality fast. As an SDET at Apple for 5+ years, I've owned end-to-end quality for iOS and web platforms: architecting frameworks using XCUITest, Playwright, and Selenium WebDriver; integrating AI-driven traceability into CI/CD pipelines; and automating regression suites that run daily without babysitting. Before Apple, I scaled QA automation at Walmart Labs — building Cypress, Protractor, and REST Assured frameworks across high-traffic eCommerce platforms. What I bring beyond test coverage: → Framework architecture (Page Object Model, modular utilities, Maven dependency management) → API automation (REST Assured, Postman, backend validation) → Cross-functional ownership (defect lifecycle, RTM, triage leadership) → AI-augmented testing (requirement-to-automation traceability) Stack: XCUITest · Playwright · Selenium · Cypress · Java · Python · JavaScript · TestNG · Jenkins · Git Open to SDET / Software Developer in Test roles at product companies building at scale.

Built end-to-end test infrastructure for iOS and web at Apple — owning framework architecture, CI/CD integration, and quality strategy across multiple product releases.
Key Contributions:
1. Automated 75+ iOS test cases using XCUITest, shifting regression from a weekly manual cycle to daily automated execution via CI/CD pipelines — freeing the team from recurring manual effort every sprint.
2.Architected iOS automation framework from scratch using Xcode, XCUITest, and Swift — enabling scalable regression coverage across consumer-facing Apple iOS products.
3. Built web UI automation suite using Selenium WebDriver and Playwright, covering end-to-end user journeys across high-traffic Apple web application.
4.Developed automation solutions in Java and Python, leveraging Maven for dependency management and modular build configuration across test suites.
5. Designed modular framework architecture (Page Object Model) and advised developers on design-for-testability — enabling cross-team reuse and reducing test maintenance overhead.
6. Established CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins/Git) that trigger automated regression suites daily — shifting defect detection left and accelerating release cadence across product teams.
7. Integrated AI-driven test traceability into Git workflows, creating automated requirement-to-automation mapping that improved audit coverage and reduced gaps in RTM.
8. Built API automation suite for backend validation, covering REST endpoints across critical service layers using Java and REST Assured.
9. Owned and maintained Requirement Traceability Matrix (RTM) across multiple feature releases, ensuring full test coverage from spec to sign-off.
10.Led cross-functional defect triage across engineering and PM stakeholders — managing full defect lifecycle from discovery through root cause analysis and resolution.

QA Engineer II

Sep 2017 – Jan 2021 · 3 yrs 4 mos · Bentonville,Arkansas · On-site

As the sole QA engineer on Walmart Labs' ML-driven personalization team, I built test automation infrastructure from scratch and validated data-driven recommendation systems powering product discovery for millions of Walmart.com shoppers.
Built Cypress automation framework from scratch as the sole QA engineer — establishing end-to-end test coverage for Walmart.com product discovery flows and creating reusable utilities adopted across the team.
Designed and executed test strategies for ML-powered product recommendation models — validating customer buying pattern analysis, item affinity scoring, repeat-purchase likelihood, and Great Value substitution logic for out-of-stock scenarios.
Built REST API automation suite using Java, REST Assured, and TestNG — validating backend recommendation service endpoints and ensuring data integrity of personalization outputs at scale.
Architected front-end automation framework from scratch using Protractor, Jasmine, and JavaScript for an Angular SPA — implementing Page Object Model structure and reusable utilities that standardized test authoring across the team.
Applied OOP principles and Java across TDD and BDD implementations in Agile/Scrum delivery cycles — writing maintainable automation aligned to sprint cadence and shifting defect detection left.
Conducted UAT with business stakeholders and maintained test plans, JIRA defect tracking, and requirement traceability across multiple feature releases.
