I build scalable performance testing frameworks that improve reliability, throughput, and release speed.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I've led performance engineering and test automation across Aspire, HCL Software, Olacabs, Lowe's, Dell Technologies, and Accenture. I build scalable frameworks, define performance strategy, and partner with developers, architects, and SREs to deliver reliable distributed systems.
My work has raised automated performance coverage from 10% to 57%, increased throughput from 190 to 993 requests per second, reduced deployment setup from one week to one day, and cut database calls from 1,100 to one. I use k6, Locust, JMeter, Selenium, Cypress, Java, Python, Node.js, Terraform, CI/CD, and observability tooling to shift performance testing left and make releases faster.
