About the role

  • Design and execute comprehensive performance test strategies — Load, Stress, Soak, Spike, Scalability, and Endurance testing.
  • Develop and maintain performance scripts using tools such as JMeter, Gatling, LoadRunner, Locust, or k6.
  • Simulate realistic user traffic and workload models for distributed systems.
  • Perform root cause analysis across application, API, database, and infrastructure layers.
  • Define and maintain performance baselines, SLAs, and SLOs.
  • Integrate performance tests into CI/CD pipelines for continuous validation.
  • Build AI-driven performance analysis frameworks using pattern recognition and anomaly detection.
  • Develop custom test agents/orchestrators using MCPs to simulate large-scale, multi-node workloads.
  • Implement self-healing test systems that adapt dynamically to environment changes.
  • Use ML models to predict performance degradation and proactively optimize systems.
  • Automate root cause detection with AI-assisted observability insights.
  • Use observability tools (Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog, New Relic, AppDynamics) to monitor and analyze performance metrics.
  • Create visual dashboards to communicate trends and optimization opportunities.
  • Collaborate with SRE and development teams for end-to-end performance tuning.
  • Partner with engineering, QA, and platform teams early in the SDLC to define performance goals.
  • Conduct post-release reviews and contribute to testing standards and best practices.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in performance testing for large-scale distributed systems
  • Strong programming skills in Python, Go, or JavaScript/TypeScript
  • Hands-on with modern testing tools (JMeter, Gatling, Locust, k6, LoadRunner)
  • Expertise in performance metrics — latency, throughput, error rate, concurrency, resource utilization
  • Experience integrating with CI/CD (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps)
  • Deep understanding of microservices, containers (Docker, Kubernetes), and distributed architectures
  • Skilled in analyzing logs, metrics, and traces for performance bottlenecks.
Benefits
  • Culture of hunger, humility, honesty, and heart
  • Opportunity to work on AI-driven innovation
