Job Summary
We are looking for an experienced Performance Test Engineer / Performance Tester with 7+ years of experience in performance testing and performance engineering.
The candidate will be responsible for ensuring the scalability, reliability, stability, and performance of enterprise healthcare applications across distributed systems and cloud environments.
The role involves designing and executing performance tests, analyzing system behavior under load, identifying bottlenecks across application, database, infrastructure, and network layers, and working closely with Development, SRE, Platform, Operations, and Architecture teams.
Healthcare domain experience is preferred.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, develop, execute, and maintain performance test scripts using JMeter and LoadRunner.
- Create workload models, performance test strategies, test plans, and execution approaches for web applications, APIs, microservices, and distributed systems.
- Perform Load, Stress, Spike, Endurance/Soak, Volume, Scalability, and Capacity Testing.
- Analyze application performance across web, API, middleware, database, network, and cloud infrastructure layers.
- Use Dynatrace, Splunk, Grafana, and other monitoring tools to identify performance bottlenecks and perform root cause analysis.
- Monitor CPU, memory, disk I/O, network, JVM, thread pools, database connections, and application metrics during test execution.
- Collaborate with development teams to troubleshoot performance issues and improve application responsiveness and stability.
- Participate in P1/P2 incident investigations and war-room diagnostics for critical production issues.
- Drive improvements in monitoring, logging, tracing, alerting, and overall observability.
- Identify system bottlenecks and provide recommendations for performance optimization and capacity planning.
- Conduct database performance analysis, query optimization validation, and transaction monitoring.
- Validate the performance of APIs, microservices, event-driven architectures, and cloud-native applications.
- Execute performance testing within CI/CD pipelines and support shift-left performance engineering.
- Prepare performance assessment reports, dashboards, trends, and executive-level summaries.
- Contribute to Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and preventive performance improvement initiatives.
- Collaborate with Product Owners, Architects, Developers, SREs, Infrastructure, and Operations teams.
- Participate in architecture reviews to identify scalability and reliability risks.
- Support performance benchmarking, capacity forecasting, and production readiness assessments.
- Ensure applications meet required performance, availability, reliability, and healthcare requirements.
