TEST MODULE LEAD - Performance Testing

Design and implement comprehensive performance testing strategies for cloud management platforms, with a focus on serverless applications.

Develop, execute, and maintain performance test plans, scripts, and scenarios using tools like JMeter, Gatling, Locust, or serverless-specific testing tools.

Monitor and analyze serverless application performance in AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, Google Cloud Functions, etc.

Identify and troubleshoot performance bottlenecks in serverless environments, considering cold starts, execution time, concurrency limits, and resource utilization.

Optimize performance and reduce costs for serverless applications through proactive monitoring, tuning, and best practices.

Work closely with development and SRE teams to implement and integrate serverless performance testing into CI/CD pipelines.

Collaborate with stakeholders to evaluate system performance, assess scalability, and plan capacity for serverless architectures.

Use performance monitoring tools such as AWS CloudWatch, Lambda Insights, Datadog, New Relic, or similar to monitor and report serverless application performance metrics.

Develop and maintain dashboards and performance metrics tailored to serverless applications.

Stay up-to-date with industry trends, serverless architectures, and best practices in performance engineering.
