As a Systems Engineer at Tata Consultancy Services, I deliver exceptional software products for mobile and web platforms, using agile methodologies and robust quality maintenance. I am experienced in performance testing, automation testing, API testing, and manual testing, with various tools and technologies such as Jmeter, Azure LoadTest, Selenium, Java, OOPS, Maven, TestNG, and Postman.

I have successfully developed and executed detailed test plans, test cases, and scripts for Android and web applications, ensuring high-quality standards and user satisfaction. I have also demonstrated my proficiency in manual REST API testing with Postman, as well as in end-to-end performance and automation testing using Jmeter and selenium with Java, TestNG and Maven. Additionally, I have utilized Azure DevOps for bug tracking and issue management.

Given an integer array nums and an integer k, return the k<sup>th</sup> largest element in the array.

Note that it is the k<sup>th</sup> largest element in the sorted order, not the k<sup>th</sup> distinct element.

Can you solve it without sorting?
