Job Description

As Senior Performance Engineer, you will own the end-to-end performance testing lifecycle for one or more product domains at MCO. You will design and execute complex load and stress scenarios, analyse results, surface root-cause insights, and collaborate directly with development and infrastructure teams to ship fixes.

Reporting to the Performance Engineering Tech Lead, you will contribute to the tooling, scripting standards, and CI/CD integration that the Performance Engineering Centre of Enablement (CoE) is building across MCO. This is a hands-on individual contributor role — the right person will love being in the data, debugging slow queries, tuning JVM heap settings, and writing clean test scripts as much as they enjoy presenting findings to engineering and product teams.

Job Advantages

Run tests in staging and pre-production environments and validate results against agreed performance acceptance criteria

Analysis & Root-Cause Investigation

Analyse performance metrics, APM traces, and profiling data to identify bottlenecks across application, database, and infrastructure tiers
Produce clear, evidence-based performance reports that distinguish symptoms from root causes and recommend actionable improvements
Collaborate with backend, frontend, and infrastructure engineers to implement and verify performance fixes

CI/CD & Tooling Integration

Integrate performance test suites into CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI, or Azure DevOps) with automated pass/fail thresholds
Contribute to shared performance testing frameworks, libraries, and standards being established by the Performance Engin
