About Smith

My name is Smith Naik  and I am Solution Architect  in the Emerging Technologies Team (Dewith key focus around GADO solution.

I started my career with Infosys   in 2000 as Test Engineer which is  an Indian multinational provider of business consulting, information technology, software engineering and outsourcing services.  After a 3 years with Infosys , I moved over to IBM and  joined Rational Unit

Rational had just been taken over by IBM , and it was small company  trying to get itself  aligned to Big Blue. I worked in Test Domain in various product teams from starting with Rational Rose , graduating to Rational Software Architect , Rational Application Developer .

In 2009 , I joined  Rational Focal Point Team as Test Manager . Focal Point was part of Telelogic Suite of products which IBM had acquired  and was integrated with Rational Business Unit.My move there was an  ‘cross pollination’ attempt , to help Telelogic integrate with IBM processes and it worked well with team adopting Rational Team  Concert , Rational Quality Manager , Rational Functional Tester and  whole gamut of IBM processes.

During the period I also tried my hands on Release Management as extended responsibility and learnt quite a lot of things which go behind the scenes to make a Product Release available.

In August 2013 , I moved to client facing role with the  newly formed Emerging Technologies Team in DevOps area with key focus on Continuous Business Planning and Governance of Application Development Outsourcing (GADO) .
