Work Experience

Software Development Engineer in Test – I

SOTI

Jun 2026 - Present Kochi, India
  • Own architecture of the enterprise Playwright automation framework, extending reusable components, locator strategies, and modular configuration as new product areas are onboarded.
  • Partner with developers to define automation standards and mentor contributors, reinforcing Page Object Model and reusable-component conventions across teams.
  • Led the initiative to eliminate the largest source of automation maintenance overhead — broken XPaths and locators — across large-scale Playwright regression suites.
  • Designed an AI-powered locator recovery pipeline combining DOM snapshot analysis with intelligent candidate ranking, integrating LiteLLM with GPT-4.1 and GPT-5 Mini through prompt engineering, with configurable AI, non-AI, and hybrid recovery modes.
  • Optimized AI usage through intelligent caching to cut redundant requests, reducing execution time and API consumption while keeping healing decisions traceable through detailed diagnostics and logging.
  • Partnered with DevOps and infrastructure teams to resolve integration and networking challenges, rolling the framework out through existing Azure DevOps and Jenkins pipelines without disrupting release workflows.

Associate Software Development Engineer in Test

SOTI

Jul 2023 - Jun 2026 Kochi, India
  • Designed and built the team's first enterprise-grade Playwright framework in C# and .NET with a SpecFlow BDD layer — including Scenario Outlines and parameterized execution — establishing the reusable component library and Page Object Model later adopted by the MobiControl and XSight teams.
  • Automated end-to-end validation of dashboards, reports, tables, filters, and CSV exports; built REST API regression suites with Postman-based validation and SQL Server backend checks to extend coverage across core enterprise workflows.
  • Built REST API automation and SpecFlow-based BDD test suites for MobiControl, an enterprise device management platform, validating functional and regression scenarios against backend services.
  • Implemented the self-healing framework and led UI automation for XSight's enterprise dashboards; integrated test execution with Azure DevOps via API calls so local and pipeline runs auto-update test case outcomes, eliminating manual result reporting.
  • Redesigned element interaction and synchronization/wait strategies to cut flaky test executions across the regression suite, and validated UI functionality across supported browsers.
