lululemon (Contract), Vancouver, BC

• Design and execute functional, integration, regression, and end-to-end testing for RFID inventory and shipment workflows spanning handheld devices, REST APIs, Spring Boot services, Kafka events, and the Nedap iD Cloud platform.
• Build and maintain Java BDD automation with REST Assured, Cucumber, JUnit 5/TestNG, Maven, and Allure to validate API responses, Kafka messages, AWS S3 outputs, and backend data across asynchronous workflows.
• Trace failures end to end using Lenses, Splunk, SQL, MongoDB, Snowflake, and AWS services, isolating defects across event producers and consumers, service logic, and third-party integrations.
• Develop automated coverage for shipment, inventory-count, and EPCIS scenarios, including store and distribution-centre integrations, event timestamps, inventory dispositions, and dead-letter queue behavior.
• Validate API gateway migration behavior across Apigee and Kong, covering functional, regression, integration, and security-related service changes.
• Integrate and troubleshoot automated suites in GitLab CI/CD on Kubernetes runners and communicate release risk with developers, vendors, and stakeholders.
• Contribute to a Playwright and TypeScript BDD framework for a new UI tool while validating the Java and Kafka backend behavior needed for reliable end-to-end coverage.

Kinaxis

• Designed and implemented a reusable UI and interface automation framework with TestCafe and TypeScript for complex supply-chain applications, with shared fixtures and patterns for scalable E2E coverage.
• Developed maintainable functional, regression, and end-to-end tests and integrated automated regression into CI/CD pipelines to provide continuous release feedback.
• Served as QA prime for epics by shaping acceptance criteria, defining test strategy, executing exploratory coverage, and communicating release-readiness risks.
• Investigated failures, documented and triaged Jira defects with developers through resolution, and presented improved testing approaches to cross-functional teams.
• Introduced reusable framework libraries and test fixtures and mentored junior testers on automation and quality practices.

Wells Fargo

• Engineered a Java, Maven, Selenium, and Cucumber BDD framework using Page Object Model and Singleton patterns, with smoke and regression suites executed through Jenkins CI/CD.
• Automated REST API scenarios with REST Assured and Postman to validate integrations and data exchange across banking applications.
• Built SQL and JDBC validation utilities to reconcile API results with Oracle database records and support data-driven test coverage.
• Performed functional, system-integration, regression, and defect-validation testing, partnering with developers in an Agile environment to isolate and resolve issues.
