About

My passion lies in maintaining high-quality standards, which is why I take pleasure in efficiently identifying and addressing design flaws, bugs, and issues internally rather than exposing them to customers. I strongly advocate for automating repetitive tasks and tests, freeing up myself and my team to tackle fresh challenges by exploring new tools and even developing custom solutions. Ultimately, I am driven to deliver significant business outcomes, create exceptional teams, and remain adaptable to emerging techniques and knowledge. Throughout my career, I have relished every opportunity to serve in individual contributor, leadership, and managerial positions. These diverse roles have provided me with a wealth of valuable insights and lessons, some of which I would like to share. - With the majority of my career spent at startups, I possess a deep understanding of the startup landscape. - My priorities always lie with ensuring customer satisfaction and maintaining the highest levels of quality. - I have a proven track record of executing significant projects with an unwavering focus on quality and repeatability. - I am adept at building high-performing teams from scratch and driving efficient outcomes. - I excel in aligning my team's goals with those of the company and management. - With experience working across different time zones, including IST, PST, and EST, I am comfortable collaborating across teams and locations. - I trust my instincts but make decisions based on data and feedback from others. - My preference is for an iterative and incremental approach to projects. - I am always eager to learn to meet the current demands of the organization - Engaging in tech discussions and learning from others is something I genuinely enjoy. - Mistakes and failures do not intimidate me, as I learn from them quickly and make changes to avoid repeating the same mistakes. - Finally, I am open to feedback, approachable, and always striving to improve. - Project Planning | Prioritisation | Roadmap Preparation | Execution Strategy | Positive Attitude Team Building| Hiring | Mentoring | Testing | Automation | Code Reviews | Framework Designs GoLang | Python | Distributed Systems | File Systems | Distributed File Systems | Distributed Storage | NFS | SMB | S3 | Backup |Replication| Archive | Distributed Databases | Kibana | ElasticDB | ELK | Jenkins| JIRA | Git| Github | PyTest | GinkGo | FIO| VDBench | Virtana | Workload Wisdom | Selenium | Functional Testing | Performance Testing | System Testing | Longevity Testing | Customer Deployment Testing | PoCs
