Description
Our Quality Engineering (QE) team is looking for a Sr. Performance Test Engineer/ Lead in the Product Development organization. The role requires a dynamic agile engineering mindset, persistence to solve complex problems and strong engineering skills.
The QE function works closely with product development and provides verification and validation on Trilliant products and solutions to ensure a highquality customer experience, to protect and grow the Trilliant brand and to reduce the cost of support. In contrast to traditional QA organizations, our function operates as an engineering discipline within the overall networks organization. The QE functions charter is to provide independent assurance of our products and solutions.
While the QE function supports developers as they write unit tests, the primary focus for QE is on test validation and customer delivery readiness across software, firmware and hardware, covering functional and nonfunctional characteristics of products and solutions. The QE teams scope covers E2E customer scenarios covering Functional, Contract/SLA, Performance and Security leading to providing assurance on readiness for customer use.
The Sr. Performance Test Engineer/ Lead will collaborate in a deeply cross functional way with development (software and firmware), system engineering and system integration and under the guidance of VP, Quality to define and own the development and execution of the performance test plan covering load, scalability and performance testing. This individual is required to demonstrate sound technical leadership, excellent relationship and customer facing skills.
The Sr. Performance Test Engineer/ Lead will play a vital role in designing, enhancing and implementing comprehensive strategies that integrate considerations for engineering for acceptable performance of products and solutions (software, firmware, hardware and partner integrations). S/he will think strategically when selecting methods, techniques, and evaluation criteria for performance benchmarking, testing, analyzing results for bottlenecks and leading the resolution of the root cause of performance issues. S/he will excel in the areas of automation, benchmarking, integration, scalability, cost optimization and continuous improvement. The Sr. Performance Test Engineer/ Lead will be responsible for partnering with product management and provide high level of confidence to our customers.
