We make performance engineering and application security part of your development stream.Performance Test Architect, work with clients in the airline industries on the modernization of performance testing services. Review bottlenecks and design appropriate performance test scenarios.

Performance Testing of Data Virtualization products. My client in the financial industry was going to introduce a new data virtualization layer and on-boarded me to compare the performance overhead of several products and figure out the performance impact of such a solution. My performance testing and engineering activities helped this customer to choose an appropriate product and size their hardware accordingly.Performance Testing of Avaloq on AIX versus Exadata platform. Together with product teams of my client in the financial industry I've created the load testing approach, executed Avaloq tests on both platforms and presented the results to the decision maker of this company.Security Awareness training for engineers working in the web development value stream.

On-boarded to improve operations in the performance engineering department, and serve as a gatekeeper at the private bank to ensure applications fulfill the requirements of highly-affluent clients with millions in assets. Recruited and developed a team of top-performing engineers to manage non-functional requirements and ensure reliability of applications to maintain optimal performance for clients’ customized accounts. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------KEY ACCOMPLISHMENTS: + Led infrastructure lifecycle performance testing project, and demonstrated the potential of reducing hardware costs by 50% through simulation of the realistic load pattern.+ Built up performance engineering services, and improved application response time of business critical applications by transforming the monitoring from working as reactive to proactive, and introducing new ways of end-user based monitoring. + Directed a group of performance-testing experts to ensure fluid onboarding of several thousands of Merrill Lynch customers. Introduced risk-based engineering to streamline the process of prioritizing the performance testing of over 70 applications, ultimately ensuring effective management of high volumes of data. + As part of Master’s thesis, analyzed the development processes to create a platform and close gaps in security and software development chain; recommended the implementation of platform Checkmarks to fulfill the requirement+ Service owner of performance test, performance monitoring and application security testing platforms

Played a crucial role in improving performance testing, and testing of automation tools in projects to enhance the reliability of applications and fulfill performance requirements. Earned promotions and additional responsibilities for leading engineering activities. On-boarded, developed and managed a team of 4 test engineers to implement new testing methods and process improvements. KEY ACCOMPLISHMENTS: - Increased efficiency of building test cases by improving the UI in replacing a former HP system with Tosca Suite, which allowed those without programming backgrounds to facilitate testing, and proactively address issues either before they reach the client, or immediately once it affects the client. - Incorporated continuous improvement for the testing suite, and its maintenance and user support by working out performance test concepts, simulating tests, identifying bottlenecks and improving reliability of applications.

Recruited to support the IT outsourcing company and manage the evaluation and rollout of performance tests and monitoring suites. Reviewed functional and non-functional requirements to lead the team in implementing all actions required to deploy application performance tests and ensure reliability.KEY ACCOMPLISHMENTS: - Instrumental in increasing revenue by implementing an end-user monitoring system, and supported the manager in creating SLAs to effectively calculate availability in performance metrics on a monthly basis, which provided a more transparent view of actual costs to charge E-plus for the Atos service. - Norman Load Testing: Directed the performance testing team to develop a strategy to effectively identify performance bottlenecking and improve functionality of the Order Management application; ultimately enhancing the process of transitioning customers into new contracts or accounts.

Directed the development team in the implementation and execution of a test automation management framework--a floating license server and the test case definition language. Trained testers in the use of the test management suite.
