Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolStelios Gkiokas is a Test Automation Architect and Principal SDET with 9 years of experience designing test architectures and performance engineering solutions for cloud-native microservices. He builds pragmatic, reusable frameworks—ranging from K6 TypeScript performance suites and Dockerized E2E frameworks to Spring Boot test harnesses and mock servers—that accelerate shift-left testing and CI productivity. Stelios has led teams and driven modernization efforts at fintech and enterprise firms, spearheading OpenAPI automation, Pact support, and large-scale e2e migrations (e.g., Protractor to WebdriverIO) while mentoring engineers. Based in Athens, he combines hands-on coding (Java, Go, TS) with operational know-how (Kubernetes, AWS, Jenkins) and a knack for tooling that doubles as both test and load drivers. Notably, he created a Spring Boot facade used as a volume trading tool, illustrating his tendency to turn test infrastructure into production-grade utilities.
