Senior QA Automation Engineer & SDET | Selenium | Playwright | Appium | API Testing | CI/CD | 5+ Years | ISTQB Certified

I am a Senior QA Automation Engineer and SDET with over 5 years of hands-on experience delivering high-quality software across web, mobile, and API testing domains.
I have worked with global companies including IFS (a UK-based enterprise product company) and Spades (Dubai), where I built robust automation frameworks from scratch, integrated them into CI/CD pipelines, and significantly improved release stability and test coverage.
What I bring to every project:

UI Test Automation using Selenium, Playwright, and Appium
API Testing using Postman, RestAssured, and Newman
CI/CD Integration with Jenkins and Azure Pipelines
Mobile Testing for Android and iOS using Appium
Cross-browser testing via BrowserStack and LambdaTest
Test strategy, test case design, and defect management using Jira, Xray, and Zephyr

Key career achievements:

Reduced regression testing time by 50–60% through automation
Achieved 95% code coverage across 100+ automated test cases
Caught 85% of bugs before production through CI/CD integration
Reduced post-release issues by 75% at Spades
Improved API defect detection by 45% at Virtusa

I work with Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, and C#. I hold a BSc in Software Engineering from ICBT Campus, Sri Lanka, and I am ISTQB Foundation Level certified (2023).
I am reliable, deadline-driven, and comfortable working with international teams across different time zones. Whether you need a full automation framework built, an existing suite improved, or thorough manual testing — I deliver quality you can trust.
