Job Level
About the role
- Design and develop a scalable, self-service performance testing framework (using tools like k6 or Locust).
- Write production-grade code (Go/Python) to abstract away infrastructure complexity.
- Embed performance gates directly into our deployment pipelines (GitHub Actions/GitLab CI).
- Partner with Principal Engineers to analyze "third-order" effects in our distributed systems.
- Create documentation, reference implementations, and "Golden Paths" that teach our engineering organization how to fish.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience writing backend code (Go, Python, or Java) and you understand software design patterns.
- You have experience building tools for other developers.
- You have deep experience with load, stress, and scalability testing.
- You are comfortable working with Kubernetes, Docker, and Cloud infrastructure.
- Experience with script-as-code tools (k6, Locust) is highly preferred over UI-based legacy tools (JMeter, LoadRunner).
Benefits
- At Weave, we use Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools to help us work more efficiently and create a smoother candidate experience.
- All official correspondence will occur through Weave branded email. We will never ask you to share bank account information, cash a check from us, or purchase software or equipment as part of your interview or hiring process.
