- Translate complex technical findings into clear business insights for technical and executive stakeholders.
- Monitor risks and proactively address performance-related issues to minimize impact on delivery timelines.
- Support platform readiness for production through rigorous validation of performance metrics, including throughput, latency, and concurrency.

- Proficiency in performance testing tools such as JMeter, LoadRunner, Gatling, or other open source/commercial platforms.
- Strong understanding of application architectures, cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), and infrastructure components.
- Familiarity with data integration ecosystems (DI) and performance implications within such environments.
- Proven experience in delivering within large-scale programs and managing performance-related risks.
- Excellent analytical skills and ability to troubleshoot, tune, and improve system performance.
