About the role
We’re looking for a hands-on Performance Test Architect who can define strategy and actively build and execute.
This isn’t a pure oversight role — you’ll be designing performance frameworks, running tests, and working closely with engineering teams to solve real scalability challenges.
What you’ll do
-
• Own and drive the performance testing strategy across distributed systems
-
• Design and implement scalable test frameworks (k6(preferred), JMeter, ...)
-
• Embed performance testing into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions)
-
• Build observability using the Grafana stack (Grafana, Prometheus, Loki, Tempo)
-
• Analyse results, identify bottlenecks, and lead performance tuning efforts
-
• Define SLIs/SLOs and ensure systems meet reliability targets
What we’re looking for
-
• Proven experience as a Performance Architect who still codes and tests
-
• Strong background in cloud-native environments (Kubernetes, Docker)
-
• Solid scripting skills (JavaScript, Python, or Java)
-
• Deep understanding of system behaviour under load
-
• Experience with OpenTelemetry and modern observability practices
