I build performance test strategies and release confidence for banking and enterprise platforms.
What I'm looking for
At Scotiabank, I design and execute load, stress, endurance and volume tests for critical brokerage journeys, using LoadRunner, JMeter and k6 to validate capacity, scalability and release readiness.
I've led performance testing for a core-banking migration spanning about 100 applications and 2,000 services, isolating Java, middleware and database bottlenecks and delivering Go/No-Go recommendations backed by production-based workload models.
