Job description

  • Performance Engineer
  • W2 Contract
  • Boston, MA

Performance Strategic Advisors Technology (SAT) is seeking a Software Engineer with strong expertise in Java and hands-on experience building enterprise-scale, cloud-ready distributed systems. We are looking for engineer with expertise in Performance testing. We are looking for engineers who strive for engineering excellence, deliver high-quality solutions, and are passionate about advancing modern technology practices.

The Expertise We’re Looking For

  • 6–8 years of full stack development experience with a strong focus on Java and backend engineering
  • Proficiency with Java EE, Spring Boot, Spring MVC, and RESTful API development
  • Experience building scalable microservices and distributed systems
  • Solid understanding of domain driven design utilizing object-oriented programming principles, secure coding, and best engineering practices
  • Hands-on experience designing, developing, and operating event-driven systems using Apache Kafka.
  • Design & execute performance tests (load, stress, soak, spike, capacity) using Apache JMeter; build reusable test plans and data strategies.
  • Instrument and analyze end-to-end system performance with Dynatrace (or similar APM)—trace hotspots across services, JVM/CLR, DB, caches, and external dependencies.
  • Engineer for scalability & resiliency—profile bottlenecks, optimize code paths, tune JVM/GC, threads, DB queries, connection pools, caches, and message brokers.
  • Automate performance pipelines—integrate tests into CI/CD (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI) with pass/fail gates based on thresholds.
  • Exposure to Docker/Kubernetes and cloud platforms such as AWS or Azure
  • Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, uDeploy or equivalent)
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills in Agile environments (Scrum/Kanban)
  • Self-driven, detail-oriented, and comfortable operating independently in a fast-paced environment

The Purpose of Your Role

The Value You Deliver

  • Designing and implementing backend services, microservices, and APIs using Java
  • Supporting and enhancing user experiences through Angular-based front-end development
  • Building solutions that meet functional and non-functional requirements, including performance, scalability, and security
  • Participating in design reviews, code reviews, and quality initiatives
  • Contributing to CI/CD improvements, cloud readiness, and engineering best practices
  • Engaging in automated testing and ensuring high-quality, maintainable code
  • Collaborating with global teams to drive modern engineering standards
