Senior Performance Testing Quality Assurance Specialist

Unlock the Power of High-Performance Applications

We are seeking a seasoned Senior QA Engineer with expertise in Application Performance and Regression Testing to join our team.

This role is critical for ensuring the stability, scalability, and reliability of our enterprise applications as we modernize and migrate existing workloads to cloud environments.

The ideal candidate will possess a unique blend of application performance engineering expertise, meticulous regression testing practices, and a solid understanding of cloud-native architectures.

You will be responsible for designing, executing, and analyzing performance and regression tests, identifying critical bottlenecks, and ensuring seamless application functionality post-migration.

1. Develop comprehensive performance test plans and strategies for complex enterprise applications.
2. Create and maintain performance test scripts using tools like JMeter, LoadRunner, or k6.
3. Monitor and analyze application performance metrics using APM tools like Dynatrace, New Relic, AppDynamics, CloudWatch, or Azure Monitor.

Collaborate closely with development, DevOps, and cloud engineering teams to pinpoint root causes of performance degradation and recommend solutions.

Conduct performance baselining and compare results against non-functional requirements and pre-migration benchmarks to validate performance improvements or identify regressions.

Provide insights into the impact of cloud infrastructure configurations on application performance.

Develop robust regression test suites to ensure new features and cloud migrations do not introduce new defects or negatively impact existing application functionality and performance.

Verify the integrity of migrated applications within AWS and Azure environments.

Actively participate in all phases of the cloud migration process, focusing specifically on the quality assurance of application functionality, performance, and data integrity within the new cloud landscape.

Review and analyze system specifications, architectural designs, and migration plans to ensure comprehensive test coverage for functional, integration, and performance aspects of migrated applications.

Engage in functional, integration, and system regression testing of cloud-deployed applications, microservices, and their integrated components.

Identify, document, and meticulously track defects related to application functionality, performance, and regressions.

Collaborate effectively with development and cloud engineering teams to prioritize, troubleshoot, and coordinate defect resolution.

Generate detailed testing reports and metrics for management review.

Contribute to the continuous improvement of performance and regression testing methodologies, tools, and processes.

Utilize version control systems effectively for test assets.

Maintain a fair understanding of application security considerations as they relate to performance and functional integrity.

Communicate complex ideas and technical information clearly and concisely through excellent verbal and written communication skills to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Adapt to new AI standards in Testing and implement the same in-house to improve team productivity and efficiency.

**Qualifications:**
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
5+ years of dedicated experience in Application Performance Testing and Engineering.

**Technical Skills:**
Demonstrated expertise with performance testing tools like JMeter, LoadRunner, or k6.
Hands-on experience in at least two significant engagements involving the analysis and migration of existing enterprise applications to AWS or Azure.

As a valued member of our team, you will enjoy a competitive salary, comprehensive benefits package, and opportunities for career growth and professional development.
