Work Experience
QA Engineer II.2007 -2014 Bally Technologies, Reno. Dept. of System Quality Assurance
 Deployed, configured and testedmultiple versions of Bally Command Center (BCC) – the system to downloadthe operating
system and content into EGMs, iViews, GMUs and EGM Game Theme configuration
 Wrote test scenarios and test cases to test the BCC functionality,reliability and performance
 Tested and corrected the documentation for BCCcustomers
 Designed, developed and implemented a number oftools in C/C++/C#/Java for faster and more reliableconfiguration and
testing ofapplications.For example,one of designed tool reduced the time necessary to configure BCCin 5-times.Another–
parsed the BCC logfiles and selected the records for appropriateevents and devices
 Developednumerousinstructions (Bally internal documents) describingthestepsrequired for successful deploymentand
configurationof BCC
 Submittednumerous proposalsto improve reliability and efficiency of BCC
Statistician/Software developer.2006 – 2007 University of Nevada. Reno. Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics
 Designed, developed and implemented application with friendly GUI to collect,organize (usingdatabase) and retrieve
random data-sets characterizing spatial and temporal concentration of chemical species in the atmosphere.
 Designed, developed and tested C# based GUI to manage data random insertion fromexternal devices into corresponding
databasetables.
 Designed, developed and tested the form for extrapolation of changes of concentration statistics on small temporal
intervaland to display them as two-dimensional map.
 Designed statistical tests to inference the sources of pollution in a given location
