Original job description

Overview

DecisionPoint seeks a Performance & Resilience Test Engineer to evaluate the scalability, stability, responsiveness, failover behavior, and recovery capabilities of mission-critical software supporting the USMEPCOM ENLIST program. This role develops regression, API, integration, load, stress, endurance, and resilience tests; creates realistic workload models; and produces reproducible evidence of system behavior under normal, peak, degraded, and recovery conditions.

The Performance & Resilience Test Engineer works with architects, software developers, API and integration engineers, infrastructure and cloud teams, database specialists, cybersecurity personnel, CI/CD engineers, operations teams, and Government stakeholders. The position identifies performance bottlenecks, validates failover and recovery procedures, and provides evidence-based recommendations supporting release readiness, capacity planning, and operational resilience.

This position is remote, with Chicago-area candidates preferred.

Note: By applying to this position, you acknowledge and consent to having your resume included in an active competitive government contract bid.

Duties & Responsibilities

The Performance & Resilience Test Engineer will:

Develop and maintain performance, load, stress, spike, endurance, volume, scalability, failover, and recovery tests.
Build automated regression, API, and integration tests supporting repeatable performance and resilience validation.
Analyze mission workflows, usage patterns, transaction volumes, concurrency, data characteristics, interfaces, and operational objectives.
Develop workload models that represent normal operations, peak demand, surge conditions, degraded environments, and recovery scenarios.
Define test objectives, performance baselines, service thresholds, acceptance criteria, and measurable expected results.
Develop test plans, scenarios, scripts, data, configurations, and execution schedules.
Prepare representative test data for functional, high-volume, boundary, exception, failover, and recovery scenarios.
Maintain repeatable processes for test-data creation, setup, refresh, reset, reconciliation, and cleanup.
Execute tests in development, integration, test, staging, performance, or other Government-approved environments.
Automate test execution through approved CI/CD pipelines where appropriate.
Produce reproducible test results, logs, reports, metrics, graphs, and objective evidence.
Measure and analyze response time, throughput, latency, concurrency, error rates, resource utilization, saturation, queue depth, and transaction completion.
Establish performance baselines and compare results across builds, releases, configurations, environments, and infrastructure changes.
Identify application, database, interface, network, cloud, infrastructure, configuration, or external-service bottlenecks.
Correlate test results with application logs, infrastructure metrics, traces, events, and monitoring data.
Work with technical teams to isolate root causes and recommend appropriate corrective actions.
Validate failover behavior for applications, services, interfaces, databases, infrastructure components, and dependent capabilities.
Test approved recovery procedures and confirm that services return to an acceptable operational state.
Validate recovery sequencing, data consistency, transaction handling, dependency restoration, and post-recovery functionality.
Evaluate behavior during component failures, network interruptions, service degradation, capacity constraints, and dependency outages.
Verify that systems fail safely and provide appropriate errors, alerts, retries, timeouts, and recovery behavior.
Support disaster-recovery, continuity, restoration, and operational-readiness exercises where applicable.
Document performance defects, resilience gaps, capacity risks, recovery failures, and release impacts.
Support defect triage, root-cause analysis, correction verification, and targeted regression testing.
Coordinate with architects and engineering teams to evaluate scalability, capacity, extensibility, and recovery approaches.
Coordinate with CI/CD engineers to integrate repeatable performance checks, thresholds, reports, and quality gates.
Coordinate with operations teams to incorporate production observations and operational feedback into future testing.
Support Government demonstrations, user acceptance testing, release testing, and operational validation.
Provide performance and resilience results, residual risks, and release-readiness recommendations to technical and program stakeholders.
Maintain test source code, scripts, configurations, data, and documentation in approved version-control repositories.
Participate in sprint planning, backlog refinement, reviews, demonstrations, retrospectives, and release-readiness activities.
Contribute to continuous improvement of performance engineering, workload modeling, observability, failover testing, and recovery validation.
