Senior Associate, Performance and Failover Testing
SALARY: $80k - $110k plus 10% bonus
LOCATION: Chicago, IL
3 days onsite
Looking for a candidate with 2-3 years performance failover testing on cloud and on prem. n-tiered environments, jmeter, selenium, spiratest and LoadRunner. Conduct failover tests by simulations of hardware software and network failures
This role will be responsible for Performance and Failover testing which includes but not limited to segments of the planning, design, and execution of performance, failover tests and produce the reports.
Primary Duties and Responsibilities
- Analyze the business requirements, understand the expectation from end user, review with Business Analysts/SMEs and design test scenarios.
- Works closely with development, QA, and operations teams to understand application architecture and performance requirements.
- Design and develop performance test scripts and scenarios using appropriate tools and frameworks.
- Monitor system behavior during performance, Load, Stress, and failover tests and ensure systems meet recovery time objectives.
- Conduct failover tests by simulations of hardware, software, and network failures.
- Identify performance bottlenecks, root causes, and potential solutions.
- Analyze Results, compare against SLAs, Benchmarks and Provide tuning recommendations to improve End User Experience.
- Document findings in Test management tool and provide actionable recommendations for improving performance/failover processes.
- Work closely with development, QA and Operations teams to integrate performance and failover testing into the overall testing Approach documentation.
- Collaborate with Enterprise Quality Process team and ensure standards are followed during failover testing and audit checks are passed.
