Performance Testing Architects often encounter challenges such as integrating testing tools with complex application architectures, ensuring test environments accurately mirror production, and maintaining test scripts as systems evolve. Additionally, they must balance the need for comprehensive coverage with resource constraints, and address bottlenecks in both application code and infrastructure. Effective collaboration with development, operations, and business teams is essential to quickly identify root causes and drive resolution of performance issues.

  • Lead test automation strategy and framework selection aligned to Facets UI, batch processing, APIs, and integration layers
  • Collaborate closely with Solution Architects and technical teams to ensure testability of Facets configurations, customizations, and integrations
  • Provide architectural guidance on performance, scalability, regression, and non-functional testing strategies
  • Act as the technical authority for complex defect analysis, cross-system issues, and root-cause investigations
