About the Role
We're looking for a Senior Quality Engineer who knows how to build performance testing environments from the ground up and drive performance strategy across complex, high-traffic systems. This role isn't about maintaining the status quo-it's about owning performance from design to delivery. You'll shape testing approaches, lead automation, and influence engineering decisions that directly impact scalability, reliability, and user experience.

You'll work closely with Engineering, Product, and Ops to ensure performance isn't an afterthought-it's built into the lifecycle. If you're the person who digs into metrics, calls out architectural risks early, and knows how to turn performance findings into business clarity, you'll thrive here.
