- Collaborated with Solution Architects, Product Owners, Business Analysts, Infrastructure teams, and Development teams to establish non-functional requirements (NFRs), Service Level Agreements (SLAs), and performance acceptance criteria.
n
- Designed realistic workload models and business transaction profiles to simulate expected production usage, peak loads, stress conditions, and long-running endurance scenarios.
n
- Led performance risk assessments, identifying potential scalability, capacity, and infrastructure risks early in the delivery lifecycle, and developed mitigation strategies.
n
- Directed the development and maintenance of Apache JMeter performance test frameworks and reusable scripts, ensuring consistency, maintainability, and scalability across projects.
n
- Established performance testing standards, governance, best practices, naming conventions, and reporting templates to improve quality and repeatability across the team.

n
- Managed performance testing resources, coordinated execution activities, assigned work, tracked progress, and mentored team members to ensure successful project delivery.
n
- Supported release governance by providing performance sign-off recommendations based on execution results, identified risks, SLA compliance, and production readiness assessments.
n
- Facilitated performance test planning workshops, defect triage sessions, and stakeholder reviews to ensure alignment across business, development, and operations teams.
n
- Drove continuous improvement initiatives by enhancing performance testing processes, frameworks, tooling, automation, and reporting capabilities to improve efficiency and reduce execution effort.
n
- Provided technical leadership and mentoring to performance engineers, promoting best practices in performance engineering, root cause analysis, capacity planning, and application optimisation.
