Abraham Cherian

I've always been curious about how things work — and just as curious about where they don't. That curiosity turned into a career. I've worked in software testing — manual and automation — since 2007, most of it spent inside high-profile programs where quality has real consequences: banking platforms, brokerage mobile apps, and large-scale retail systems.

My focus is designing test automation frameworks and strategy that hold up as products scale: API, web, mobile and mainframe coverage, Agile delivery, and clear reporting that keeps QA in step with engineering and business stakeholders. I've led cross-functional, multi-geography teams of 10+, and increasingly I build AI-assisted tooling to make testing faster without cutting corners.

I grew up in Coimbatore, India, in a Knanaya Jacobite Christian family — Malayalam is my mother tongue. A work assignment brought me to Austin, TX in 2012. I'm a son, brother, husband, and a father of 3 kids. Off the clock, I'm usually outdoors — gardening, woodworking, or trying something new (soap-making) — a DIY-er, animal lover, and aquarium keeper who quietly dreams of someday retiring on a farm.

Small, self-contained tools I build for fun and for public use — each one runs entirely on your device once the page loads. Open one in a new tab, switch off your Wi-Fi, and it keeps working: no server, no accounts, nothing sent anywhere.
