Work Experience
Over 2 years of industry experience driving test automation, manual QA, and software quality.
Associate Software Quality Assurance Engineer
AtLink Communications • Sri LankaPerformed manual, exploratory, accessibility, and performance testing across web-based systems. Developed automated test suites using Playwright for functional and regression testing, and designed and independently built an automation framework from the ground up for a software system. Created an accessibility testing suite using Playwright to automate accessibility checks, and performed website testing using Playwright MCP and Playwright CLI, exploring AI-assisted and agentic testing workflows. Tested RAG-based systems, validating system behavior and responses across different scenarios, and collaborated with development teams to identify, reproduce, and communicate software defects.
Quality Assurance Internship
AtLink Communications • Sri LankaPerformed manual and exploratory testing to identify functional issues and unexpected system behavior. Designed and maintained BDD test cases using Gherkin scenarios, and developed automated tests using Selenium. Executed regression testing to verify existing functionality after software changes, and reported and documented defects while working with the development team during the defect-resolution process.
