Requirements

  • BS-level technical degree required; Computer Science or Engineering background preferred
  • 13+ years of experience in CloudOps or DevOps with a focus on cloud application management
  • Hands-on experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure in building and maintaining cloud-based environments
  • Strong knowledge of Linux systems, networking, and cloud security fundamentals
  • Experience with containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes) and their use in functional and performance testing scenarios
  • Proficiency with automation tools (Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible, Helm, ArgoCD) for managing cloud environments
  • Experience with monitoring tools (e.g., Nagios, Grafana, Prometheus) to track and analyze test bed performance and functional test results
  • Experience in troubleshooting and optimizing cloud infrastructure for performance testing, including identifying bottlenecks and ensuring accurate results
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and integrating both functional and performance testing into these workflows
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills to work effectively with cross-functional teams across multiple time zones
  • (Preferred) Experience with performance testing tools (e.g., JMeter, LoadRunner, Apache Benchmark) and functional testing tools (e.g., Selenium, TestNG)
  • (Preferred) Experience with highly scalable microservices architectures and testing them

Responsibilities

  • Design, manage, and optimize cloud test bed environments in AWS, GCP, and Azure for both functional and performance testing
  • Collaborate with Development and QA teams to define testing requirements for functional validation (unit, integration, regression tests) and performance testing (load, stress, scalability)
  • Provision, automate, and scale test environments using infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar solutions to support both functional and performance testing
  • Ensure that cloud test beds replicate production environments and accurately simulate real-world traffic and load for performance testing, as well as support stable, isolated environments for functional testing
  • Automate the setup and teardown of cloud test environments to efficiently handle continuous integration and continuous testing processes
  • Develop and implement monitoring solutions to track key metrics for both functional test validation and performance testing (e.g., test execution times, system resource utilization, response times)
  • Troubleshoot issues in test environments (whether related to functional or performance testing) and work to resolve them quickly, ensuring minimal downtime for testing activities
  • Collaborate with teams to identify performance bottlenecks, scalability issues, and functional bugs and ensure timely resolution during testing phases
  • Continuously optimize and improve the efficiency of test bed management, ensuring that test environments are available, scalable, and cost-effective
  • Analyze test results for both functional and performance tests, identifying trends, issues, and opportunities for improvement in test bed infrastructure and testing strategies
  • Ensure seamless integration of performance and functional testing into the CI/CD pipeline to support rapid feedback cycles during the development process
