After ~1 year in software engineer in testing role, I joined the Amazon detail page organization as a software engineer in 2014. Amazon detail page is one of the most visited pages on the internet. My immediate team owned the Tier-1 backend framework called DPX (Detail Page eXperience) for the detail pages. My daily activities included, but not limited to, designing and developing new framework enhancements and detail page features; stakeholder engagement, operations and on calls; interviewing software engineer/QA candidates; and guiding and mentoring junior engineers and interns.Some of my most notable projects:1. I identified a high-severity legal issue for Amazon worldwide; made a case for prioritization; and led and collaborated with 4 organizations to deliver a successful resolution. If unresolved, this could have cost Amazon ~1MM USD.2. I successfully led and delivered 3 platform migrations by collaborating with ~150+ partner teams for DPX.

As an SDET, I designed and developed an automation framework for UI and functional testing of the Amazon website. The automation framework minimized the overhead of finding the elements via hard-coded references in DOM (X Paths/CSS selectors). I did this by leveraging JavaScript and jQuery to find the elements, taking screenshots of A/B, and then running an image diff to detect any unwanted or undesired changes or bugs.My other responsibilities included developing test plans, test case enumeration, generating test data, and manual testing.

I completed all the relevant courses in Computer Sciences, was a part of Inter IIT Table Tennis team and coordinator of Entrepreneurship Club. Besides this, I was also a part of the Programme Management group which handled all the small functions carried out in the college. I served as the Publicity and Design Coordinator of Exodia'12, which was the first technical-cum-cultural festival of IIT Mandi.
