About meHere's my story.

Hi, I’m Manoj, a developer, blogger , experienced tester, distinguished speaker, and open source enthusiast. I enjoy exploring the entire software development lifecycle and am especially interested in solving problems in the Digital transformation, Software Quality, Human-computer Interaction, and Cloud Computing spaces, having worked in enterprises, Fintech, and early-stage startups for over 14 years. I hold a master's degree (MS) in Software Engineering from BITS, Pilani and I have also obtained a certification in Specialization on Leadership and Management from Harvard Business School Online.

I’m an avid open-source enthusiast, and have committed to the Selenium and Appium project. I am also part of the project leadership committee for Selenium. I have also contributed to various libraries and frameworks like ngWebDriver, Protractor and Serenity, and hosted my own projects, on Docker and Kubernetes in the automated testing ecosystem.

I genuinely believe that sharing knowledge and experiences would strengthen our community. I am a member of the ACM and IEEE Computer Society and have given keynote addresses and technical talks at numerous international conferences on software engineering and testing in over 15+ countries.

In my free time, I also enjoy researching about the Human-Computer Interaction and actively advocate for these interactions to be inclusive for users with various disabilities, as well as a member of the IAAP, IxDF, and W3C ACT-R organisations.

Overall Interests: Developer Relations, Legacy Modernization, Cloud Computing, Quality, Usability, Accessibility, Observability, AI/ML Ops

You can find me on Twitter where I share tech-related tidbits and build in public, or you can follow me on GitHub. I often write about my findings on my blog .
