Performance Engineering Leader with 15+ years of hands-on and leadership experience across banking, fintech, and telecom. I've owned end-to-end performance lifecycles for systems processing 200M+ transactions, working with organisations like Oracle Financial Services, Capgemini (Barclays, Fidelity), and Tech Mahindra (AT&T onsite, USA). Core expertise: LoadRunner, Apache JMeter, Dynatrace, AppDynamics, Splunk, AWS, Oracle DB (AWR tuning), microservices, and cloud-native architectures. I build performance frameworks from scratch — NFR definition, workload modelling, capacity planning, bottleneck analysis, and production readiness sign-off. I've delivered 25–30% improvements in response time and throughput, and recently pioneered AI-driven synthetic test data pipelines (Cline + MCP + Grok-3) to generate privacy-compliant datasets at scale. Based in Chennai. Open to Senior Manager / Principal / Architect roles in performance engineering.
