Lead Performance Architect

IBM ISL
Jan, 2024 - Present2 yr 4 months
    Designed and implemented a robust performance test framework for simultaneous multi-database connection and monitoring, improving test reliability and scalability. Achieved significant cost reduction in testing through the adoption of container-based databases, improving overall infrastructure efficiency. Deployed JMeter tests on OpenShift/Kubernetes via Jobs with dynamic YAML, PVC handling and NFS storage. Integrated Prometheus & Grafana with JMeter for real-time metrics and SLA-based dashboards. Automated JMeter orchestration using Jenkins pipelines and OpenShift-native deployment scripts. Configured Node Exporter with custom collectors using Ansible, integrated with Prometheus and Grafana. Used Ansible to automate database cleanup and purging tasks post-performance testing. Collected system metrics (CPU, memory, PSI, I/O) via Prometheus; built alerts and visualizations with PromQL. Enabled secure Oracle DB access in containers using Kerberos and implemented the same in JMeter OCP framework. Parsed multi-GB MongoDB audit logs using Python for behavior analysis and pattern recognition. Generated test summary reports with pass/fail stats, error %, throughput, and system usage metrics. Collaborated with cross-functional teams (Product Managers, Architects, and QA Engineers) to optimize performance across cloud-native applications.

Lead Performance Architect

Synechron
Apr, 2023 - Dec, 2023 8 months
    Designed and implemented an APM tool that monitors system performance, detects abnormal behavior, and provides real-time alerts. Utilized Grafana, Telegraf, and InfluxDB to create comprehensive monitoring dashboards, and Kapacitor for advanced data processing. Implemented user-defined Python functions to enhance monitoring functionality and automation. Integrated AI/ML models for predictive performance analytics, reducing system downtime by 15%. Developed a mechanism to identify and mitigate DDoS attacks, enhancing system security and reliability. Led SaaS performance benchmarking efforts, improving system response times and optimizing cloud resource utilization. Defined and enforced performance SLAs and quality targets for cloud-based applications, ensuring stability and uptime. Designed automated CI/CD performance testing strategies, ensuring faster and more reliable releases in cloud-native environments. Spearheaded multi-region cloud deployment strategies, enhancing global scalability and system resilience.
