// ABOUT

Principal Software QA Engineer (ISTQB CTFL-AT) at SS&C Blue Prism, specialist in QA automation architecture, framework design, and AI-driven tooling at scale. I design and evolve test automation frameworks adopted across multiple engineering teams to CI/CD-integrated testing pipelines. My work spans C#, TypeScript, and Python, grounded in architectural principles like BDD, Page Object Model, and scalability-first design. On the AI side, I am currently building agent pipeline solutions using Langflow, n8n, and MCP tools, transforming experimental ideas into real products. I invest in knowledge sharing, team enablement, and documentation, mentoring QA engineers to deliver high standards in code and architecture, and providing continuous improvement across teams. Driven by the intersection of quality engineering, intelligent automation, and developer experience.
