Work History

Senior Performance Test Engineer

Amdocs
Pune
01.2025 - Current
  • Currently working on a mission-critical migration project for AT&T, transforming applications from a legacy monolithic system to a scalable microservices architecture deployed on Kubernetes.
  • Designed and executed end-to-end performance testing strategies, including load, stress, endurance, and spike testing, tailored to simulate peak-hour user patterns and business-critical transactions.
  • Performed detailed Root Cause Analysis (RCA) for issues observed during load tests, such as thread pool exhaustion, memory leaks, and high GC pause times, ensuring faster resolution and system tuning.
  • Optimized application performance through Kubernetes scaling strategies, tuning of horizontal pod autoscaling, and Kafka consumer concurrency adjustments to handle dynamic workloads.
  • Instrumented services with Dynatrace, Grafana, and Kibana dashboards to monitor key performance indicators (CPU, memory, heap usage, thread metrics, and latency).
  • Automated performance smoke and sanity test suites using Jenkins pipelines, integrating performance gates into CI/CD workflows to catch regressions early.
  • Collaborated with DevOps, architecture, and development teams to propose and validate configuration changes across containers, JVM parameters, and database connections for optimized throughput.
  • Developed custom dashboards and reports for stakeholders, providing actionable insights and trend analysis over successive test cycles.
  • Led and mentored a high-performing team of nine performance engineers, managing estimations, resource planning, knowledge sharing, and driving delivery across multiple agile sprints.
  • Participated in capacity planning discussions and contributed to SLI/SLO definitions to ensure alignment with performance SLAs, and business expectations.
