Performance-focused Site Reliability Engineer improving reliability, load testing, and observability at scale.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a performance-focused Site Reliability Engineer with 3+ years of experience improving production reliability, executing load and stress testing at scale, and driving observability across high-traffic enterprise platforms. I’ve boosted application performance by ~40% through JMeter-driven load testing, Datadog monitoring, and bottleneck analysis.
I accelerate incident resolution by ~90% using structured triage coordination and clear cross-team communication, then follow through with root-cause analysis and blameless postmortems. I integrate continuous testing and validation into CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions to improve deployment confidence and reduce release surprises.
I’m particularly motivated by mission-driven work—building reliable platforms that perform when it matters most, including under high-volume traffic events. I also support quality with API and database validation (Postman + SQL) and use tools like Python and scripting to automate recurring workflows and improve operational maturity.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Improved application performance by ~40% by designing and running JMeter load/stress tests to identify bottlenecks and drive targeted optimizations. Accelerated incident resolution by ~90% through structured triage across engineering, QA, security, and product, and reduced manual operational effort by ~30% via reusable, CI/CD-integrated quality checkpoints.
Collaborated with SRE and engineering partners to clarify requirements, reproduce production defects, and validate fixes focused on performance, reliability, and correctness. Identified automation opportunities across recurring operational processes to reduce manual operational effort and improve team efficiency.
