Senior Quality Engineer | AI-Powered QA & Automation

I build scalable automation and AI-assisted quality systems that help engineering teams test smarter, understand release risk, and ship with confidence. 11+ years in Quality Engineering across web, mobile, API, and AI/LLM-driven workflows — with the last two years focused on agentic QA, AI-assisted test selection, and release-risk analysis.

My Knowledge

AI & Agentic QA

Smart test-selection agents, release-risk analysis, and Claude-assisted automation workflows.

Automation Architecture

Playwright, WebDriverIO, and Appium frameworks built for scale across web, iOS, and Android.

Release-Risk Reporting

CI-integrated coverage, QA, and release-risk visibility using GitHub Actions, Codecov, and Istanbul.

Smart Test Picker Agent

Smart Test Picker Agent

An AI-assisted prototype that analyzes Git diffs, maps impacted product domains, and dynamically selects the relevant smoke and E2E suites for a change — instead of running the full regression pack every time. By targeting only the tests a diff could plausibly break, it cut targeted regression runtime by roughly 80% while preserving release confidence.

QA Reporting & Release-Risk Platform

QA Reporting & Release-Risk Platform

Centralized QA reporting and release validation workflows integrating Codecov, Istanbul, TestMo, and CI pipelines into a single view of automation coverage, test health, and release risk. Used to drive bi-weekly production release sign-off, the platform helped bring manual release validation down from roughly 3 hours to under 40 minutes.

Mobile Cloud Automation Agent

Mobile Cloud Automation Agent

An adaptive mobile automation agent built to validate Android and iOS workflows across local simulators and physical cloud devices, using TestMu/LambdaTest, Appium, Espresso, and XCUITest. Handles environment-specific runtime behavior so the same test suite runs reliably whether it's executing on a simulator or a real device in the cloud.

Dognate was created with "sharing is the new buying in mind". A common pain point with nonprofits and low income families is a general lack of resources. The sharing economy offers new and creative ways to think about locating, accessing, and trading resources.

Socos

There is a disconnect between what is assessed in education and what is relevant throughout life. There are few resources, in or out of the classroom, for connecting assessments with feedback that can predict or improve life-outcomes. Our solution is to implement meta-learning through naturalistic educational interventions.
