Parth Bakshi Email & Phone Number

Parth Bakshi is a Sr software engineer with passion for developer productivity and internal tools at SAS. He possess expertise in c++, java, python, opengl, google api and 14 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Parth and I worked together as members of rPath's QA team, where we leveraged automation to test the rPath Cloud Engine. Parth recently demonstrated his strengths as an engineer when our release schedule shifted last minute and he was tasked with leading the testing effort (in the team lead's absence). Despite having only three months experience with the product, Parth worked diligently and efficiently to test nearly 100 bugs in a week's time. Without hesitation, he spent several extra nights working with engineers to close challenging defects. During this release, Parth clearly demonstrated his ability to be industrious and resourceful in the face of challenging responsibilities. I commend Parth to any team looking for a hard worker with a strong technical background. I am confident they will benefit from his excellent attitude and strong skills.", "Team leads know that their first hire is critical when building a team, and Parth was my first hire at rPath. I highly recommend him for any QA or Development roles. rPath's product is very complex and presents a number of testing challenges, but Parth came up to speed very quickly and after less than a year I am completely comfortable with him taking sole ownership of planning and executing the testing and automation of major features. He has a tremendous work ethic and works well independently, but also has a good sense of when it's appropriate to reach out to development or product management. He is also very strong technically - he began contributing to the existing automation framework almost immediately. He is constantly looking for ways to improve or new tools to bring into the framework, and I greatly value his input on architectural decisions. I can confidently hand off major automation projects to him at this point, knowing that he will get the job done. I would definitely hire or work with Parth as a peer again.", and "Parth came to rPath straight out of grad school, and he very quickly became a core part of our QA team. It took no time at all for him to master python and our QA automation framework, and he immediately understood and helped to extend our QA processes. Parth's most recent project was to develop automation tests for the configuration management portion of our product, the core feature of our latest release. This required a deep understanding of the underlying REST API as well as Linux and Windows system administration as a whole. As expected, Parth nailed it. Parth is definitely on my list of people to work with again, and he would be a great addition to any QA team."
