Experience

2021 - Present

Member Of Technical Staff - 4 (DevSecOps & Application Security) 

Nutanix

India

I optimized the DevSecOps pipeline by integrating Qualys, Rapid7, and Tenable into automated API-driven workflows, architected a scalable vulnerability database with AWS (Lambda, API Gateway, DocumentDB), and built secure REST APIs with Python FastAPI—improving data access by 35%. I automated DAST scans for 20+ apps, authored 100+ security advisories annually, and streamlined product onboarding into security pipelines. Backed by a QA foundation, I blend automation, scalability, and security to deliver faster, safer releases.

2020 - 2021

JOB POSITION

Nuance Communications

Pune, Maharastra, India

Strengthened application security by performing active and passive scans with Burp Suite and OWASP ZAP, automating ZAP passive scans and dependency checks to reduce manual effort and ensure secure delivery. I designed a DevSecOps roadmap, conducted OWASP Top 10 testing, and identified critical vulnerabilities such as broken access control, brute force attacks, and improper DMARC configurations.

2017 - 2020

Senior QA Engineer

Nuance Communications

Pune, Maharastra, India

As a Senior Quality Assurance Engineer at Nuance Communications, I built and scaled a BDD test automation framework using Cucumber, Python, and Java, while expanding test coverage by 100% without increasing execution time. I integrated the framework with Jenkins for CI, developed automated scripts for image and audio comparison that saved 19+ hours monthly, and mentored junior engineers through code reviews and technical guidance—boosting both team productivity and software quality.

2015 - 2017

Graduate Test Engineer

Imagination Technologies

Pune, Maharastra, India

At Imagination Technologies, I executed 100+ tests (unit, performance, stability, SDK/MDK) to ensure GPU driver quality, managed end-to-end driver testing across Null and XORG systems, and compiled 50+ driver modules while monitoring kernel logs for faults. I improved efficiency by developing Python and Shell automation scripts, streamlined result validation with custom parsers, and maintained hardware platforms and IoT test chips, along with version control in Perforce.

2013 - 2015

Software Test Engineer

Amdocs Pvt. Ltd

Pune, Maharastra, India

At Amdocs, I led frontend testing for CRM and OMS across 5+ major telecom applications, streamlining smoke test workflows with Selenium WebDriver and cutting execution time by 30%. I managed triage and reporting of 100+ high-priority defects via HP ALM, accelerating resolution by 25%. Beyond testing, I conducted end-to-end validation, led 10+ knowledge transfer sessions to onboard 20+ team members, and collaborated with clients and business analysts to deliver 3+ projects smoothly. I also launched an internal SharePoint site that boosted team collaboration and innovation.
