About
Who's Building Your Quality Infrastructure?
Not an agency. Not a freelancer marketplace. Just me—an engineer who's been in the trenches.
2019-2021: Building Products
Started as a freelance full-stack developer on Fiverr. Built 50+ websites—e-commerce platforms, SaaS tools, marketing sites. The pattern was clear: everyone rushed to ship features. Quality was always "next sprint" (which meant never).
2021: The QA Revelation
Quality engineering isn't about finding bugs after the fact. It's about designing systems that prevent bugs from existing in the first place. Learned Playwright, Selenium, Gatling. Built CI/CD pipelines. Figured out how to make AI useful for testing.
2021-Present: Enterprise Scale
Moved from intern → Associate Engineer → Quality Engineer. Architected test frameworks handling millions of users. Built AI-powered test generation that actually works in production.
Availability
I work evenings IST (7 PM - 10 PM) which is 8:30 AM - 11:30 AM EST. Async via Slack/Email during your business hours.

Core Expertise
What I Actually Believe
- • Quality isn't a phase. It's designed into the system from day one.
- • Automation isn't about replacing humans. It's about freeing humans to focus on interesting problems.
- • AI is a tool, not magic. You need both AI and human understanding.
- • The best test suite is maintainable. I build frameworks that last.
The Problem
Your QA Bottleneck Is Costing You
These problems sound familiar?
Manual Testing Holding You Back?
Your developers finish features fast, but QA takes forever. Manual regression testing means week-long release cycles when you need daily deploys. You're losing market opportunities.
The Hiring Nightmare
The market is brutal. Good QA automation engineers want $100k+ salaries. Junior engineers need 6 months of training. Agencies are expensive and unreliable. You're stuck.
Technical Debt Nightmare
Your Selenium tests are flaky. CI/CD pipelines fail randomly. Nobody trusts the automation anymore, so everyone tests manually again. The test suite became the problem.
There's a better way.
You don't need a full-time QA team. You need someone who can build you a bulletproof automation framework, set it up properly with modern tools, train your team to maintain it, and hand it off properly.
That's exactly what I do.

Specializations
What Makes This Different
Most QA consultants are stuck in 2015 with Selenium and Java. I'm not.
AI-Powered Testing
Everyone talks about it. I've actually built it.
I've created production AI test generation systems that work. Not theoretical—deployed, running, generating real value.
- •Integrates with your OpenAPI specs
- •Validates AI output automatically
- •Catches edge cases AI misses
- •Domain-specific prompt templates
- •Cost-optimized (not burning through tokens)
Most "AI testing" is just ChatGPT wrappers. Mine is an actual system.
Serverless Expertise
Lambda testing is not the same as API testing.
Cold starts, concurrency limits, timeout handling, DynamoDB partition design—these matter for serverless testing.
- •Cold start impact measurement
- •Concurrency testing at scale
- •Event-driven workflow validation
- •DynamoDB performance testing
- •Cost-optimized test execution
Your Lambda functions get proper testing, not adapted Selenium patterns.
Developer-First Mindset
I write code. Not just test scripts.
My background is full-stack development. I understand your codebase, architecture decisions, and technical constraints.
- •I read and understand your code
- •I know why you made certain architecture choices
- •I can suggest testing approaches that fit your workflow
- •I speak developer language, not QA jargon
- •I build tools developers actually want to use
QA people who never built production systems don't understand your problems. I do.

|---|---|---|---|
| Time to Start | 2-3 months | 2-4 weeks | 1 week |
| Monthly Cost | $7k-10k + benefits | $10k-15k retainer | $1.5k-5k project-based |
| Expertise Level | Hit or miss | Varies by person | Specialized, guaranteed |
| Commitment | 12+ months minimum | 6-12 month contracts | Project-based, no lock-in |
| Knowledge Transfer | They leave, knowledge goes | Minimal docs | Complete handoff |

| Results Timeline | 6 months to see impact | Slow ramp-up | Production-ready in weeks |
Here's the reality:
I'm not building a service business. I'm an engineer who productized his expertise.You're not hiring a vendor who manages other people. You're working with someone who'sactually done this work—not delegating it.
- I stay current with actual production challenges
- I'm selective about projects (only work I'm interested in)
- You get enterprise-level expertise without enterprise overhead
- No account managers or middlemen—just direct collaboration

Is This Right For You?
Let's be honest about who I work with best.
You're a great fit if:
- You're a startup or scale-up (5-50 people) moving fast
- Your developers can write tests if given a good framework
- You value quality but can't justify a full QA team yet
- You're using modern tech (React, Node, Python, AWS)
- You want to ship faster without sacrificing quality
- You're willing to maintain tests after I build the foundation
- You have clear product requirements and tech specs
- You're comfortable with async communication
This probably won't work if:
- You need someone to run manual tests forever
- You want someone to join your team full-time
- You're using legacy tech exclusively (old Java/JSP, .NET 2.0)
- You expect automation to catch 100% of bugs
- You're not willing to invest time in handoff/training
- Your budget is under $1,500 total
- You have vague requirements and no tech specs
- You need someone available 24/7 for emergencies
