Job Description
Position Description:
We are looking for an experienced Senior Test Engineer – Performance Testing who will play a key role in assessing and optimizing the performance, scalability, and reliability of software products, particularly in cloud-native and microservices environments. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in performance testing tools, cloud infrastructure, and monitoring solutions with a solid understanding of application architecture and DevOps practices.
Your future duties and responsibilities:
Key Responsibilities:
• Design, develop, and execute performance, load, stress, and scalability tests for applications, APIs, and microservices hosted on cloud platforms (AWS/Azure).
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (development, DevOps, product) to understand architecture and system flows, and identify performance bottlenecks early.
• Create and maintain performance test scripts using tools like JMeter (preferred), LoadRunner, or Gatling.
• Analyze system performance using tools such as Grafana, Kibana, and Dynatrace to identify trends, bottlenecks, and areas of concern.
• Build and enhance performance test frameworks and integrate them into CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, Azure DevOps).
• Simulate real-world scenarios to validate application performance under various loads and across environments.
• Interpret performance results, correlate metrics, and provide actionable insights and recommendations to improve application responsiveness and stability.
• Work in Agile teams, contributing to sprint planning and product release cycles with a performance-first mindset.
• Document performance test strategies, scenarios, execution results, and reports for stakeholders.
• Collaborate on performance tuning at all layers — frontend, middleware, backend, database, and network infrastructure.
Required qualifications to be successful in this role:
Preferred Qualifications:
• 8+ years of experience in performance engineering and testing.
• Strong proficiency in scripting languages such as C#, JavaScript, or C, and sound OOPs concepts.
• Hands-on experience in SQL Server for performance testing DB-intensive operations.
• Experience in testing distributed cloud applications and understanding cloud-native architecture impacts on performance.
• Strong exposure to microservices performance testing, service-level validation, and throughput/latency analysis.
• Experience in CI/CD pipelines and automation of performance tests in release workflows.
• Familiarity with product testing lifecycle in Agile environments and understanding of DevOps practices.
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and debugging skills.
• Effective communication and documentation skills to share findings with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience in performance optimization and working closely with development/infra teams for resolution.
