// SENIOR SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT ENGINEER IN TEST

I build quality infrastructure that enables high-velocity shipping.

Specializing in containerized CI/CD ecosystems and contract testing. I help enterprise teams move from "fragile & slow" to "robust & continuous."

// BUSINESS IMPACT

Engineering for ROI, not just pass rates.

Most test automation captures bugs. Mine captures lost time. Here is the quantifiable impact of my architecture on delivery velocity.

SPEED
3w 1w

Release Cycle Acceleration

Compressed regression cycles via containerized CI/CD and shift-left contract testing.

SCALE
0 +

Automated Checks

Managed <2% flake rate on a national-scale ERP system serving 40k+ facilities.

LATENCY
0 %

Latency Reduction

Improved p95 scores on critical inventory flows through targeted JMeter profiling.

OPEN SOURCE INNOVATION

Killing flaky locators
at the source.

I built XPathy to solve the "Fragile Locator" problem in enterprise Selenium/Appium suites. It replaces brittle, magic strings with a fluent, type-safe DSL that compiles into optimized XPath.
