Develop and maintain automated performance test scripts using K6, Cypress, and other related tools.

Integrate performance tests into the CI/CD pipeline using automation tools like Jenkins, GitLab CI, or Azure DevOps.

Leverage BDD frameworks (e.g., Cucumber, SpecFlow) to write performance test cases that are readable and maintainable by both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Performance Analysis & Reporting:

Analyze test results to identify performance bottlenecks, scalability issues, and areas for improvement.

Provide detailed, actionable reports with recommendations for optimizing performance, including insights on load distribution, throughput, response times, and resource utilization.

Work with the development team to debug and resolve performance issues and defects.

Collaboration and Continuous Improvement:

Collaborate with product managers, engineers, and stakeholders to understand performance requirements and ensure that testing is aligned with business objectives.

Keep up to date with the latest trends and best practices in performance testing, automation, and related technologies.

Drive a culture of continuous improvement by promoting performance testing early in the development lifecycle.

Required Qualifications:

Experience:

Technical Skills:

Solid knowledge of JavaScript, Node.js, and TypeScript for test automation and scripting.

Familiarity with performance testing tools and scripting languages (e.g., K6 scripting, JavaScript, JSON).

Experience with test automation frameworks like Jest, Mocha, or Chai for functional and performance testing.

Understanding of web technologies such as HTTP, WebSockets, REST APIs, JSON, etc.

Familiarity with CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI, Azure DevOps) and their integration with performance testing frameworks.

Soft Skills:

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to identify root causes and propose solutions.

Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain technical issues to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Experience working in an Agile environment with cross-functional teams.

Ability to lead and mentor a team of performance testers.

Desired Qualifications:

Experience with cloud-based testing platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud).
