Sanradiance work experience of a person who joined as a Fresher & is here for more than 1 year now
I am software engineer working with SanRadiance since one & half year. I would like to share my experience I had gone through working with this organization as this was the phase that changed my life from an engineering student to an engineering professional.
I was just out from my engineering and was here out in Bangalore in search of a job I knew that getting a job into a reputed MNC was bit far from my reach as these MNC’s would definitely take into consideration the experience an employee should have to take up an interview with them . Then my friends suggested me to take up programming course and as every one of them do, I took up 6month course on a programming language and started attending classes ,and to tell you the truth I was bugged up by the coding as I was poor at it and at the same time I had updated my resume in the job portal as fresher and had also contacted my senior to see if they could refer me in their orginization. This was a time when one of my senior who was working with SanRadiance told me that his company(sanradiance) is hiring fresher and it’s a requirement for a QA engineer, he told me that he would refer me and I forward my resume as per, he also suggested me to read some of the testing documents as it was for a testing profile.I started reading documents on testing and prepared for it seriously as I had to try and grab opportunity I contacted my seniors who are working professionals to give me tips and suggestion to face the interview and to share their experience with me finally I was ready for that interview day.
The next phase. I was in, I was in this software organization and was to work on the latest technology which I was unaware off. I was nervous and to nervous on the first day of my job but the environment in here was real splendid ,I was introduced to a team of 8 members and we were to be given training on storage concept (SAN,Enterprise NAS, FC arrays and communication). The training was for 3 weeks and there where 4 other member in the training who would work on other projects .
This three week training was awesome. In these three weeks I had learnt best technologies of present day
The project : My first project was to test a product which works on iSCSI technology. We as a team of 6 members has to benchmark this product against the industrial standard product available in the market, this was a great learning each of us in the team headed by our lead where allocated different modules where in for each of us has to derive Test cases as per. This project had a deadline of 11month and it was planned with 2 weeks delivery outcome i.e. after every 15 days we need to send our achieved goals to our client. For the next 4 cycles the plan was to write the Test cases on the assigned modules and do a peer review of the Test cases and the remaining 15 day cycles we had to execute the Test cases on the test environment and report the defect as per. The test cases were ready by end of the first phase we all had done a great job.
To execute these test cases we had to create our test set up as per the requirement, Our test environment consisted of product software which is to be installed over the Dell server through a remote connection, Iometer tool as the Input, Output generator to provide the load, Performance monitoring tools this was a crucial movement for me as I had never before worked on the servers, at this moment of time I started feeling pressurized and felt its hard for me to do it as the deadline was approaching, but with lot of support from the team members, with dedication and determination I could uphold the work pressure and carry on my task successfully and at the end of 3rd, 4th cycle of this execution phase it was a smooth flow of tasks assigned.
We as a team had become so close that it was second family out here. We were enjoying, having fun at the same we did our best towards the project. The project was delivered & the client was content with the outcome. I was appreciated by lead & managers for showing skills on carrying out optimised testing on the product among our team. I had lots of bugs to add to my credit. I could proudly say I filed most bugs in the whole team.
This is my personal remembrance record which I thought would share with the people just in case anyone who would be interested to know about life at software industry.
I thank Sanradiance technologies team for its support and belief for which I am what I am today. It has given me a platform where I excelled as a software professional.
