We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Cloud Test Bed Engineer to manage and optimize cloud test beds for both functional and performance testing. The ideal candidate will ensure cloud environments are automated, scalable, and aligned with CI/CD processes, supporting both core functionality validation and performance assessments under heavy loads.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design, manage, and optimize cloud test bed environments in AWS, GCP, and Azure for functional and performance testing.
- Collaborate with Development and QA teams to define testing requirements for unit, integration, regression, load, stress, and scalability tests.
- Provision, automate, and scale test environments using infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar solutions.
- Ensure test beds replicate production environments and simulate real-world traffic for performance testing while maintaining stable environments for functional testing.
- Automate setup and teardown of cloud test environments for efficient continuous integration and continuous testing.
- Develop and implement monitoring solutions to track key metrics for both functional and performance tests.
- Troubleshoot and resolve issues in test environments to minimize downtime.
- Identify performance bottlenecks, scalability issues, and functional bugs; ensure timely resolution during testing phases.
- Continuously optimize test bed management for availability, scalability, and cost-efficiency.
- Analyze test results to identify trends, issues, and opportunities for improvement in test bed infrastructure and strategies.
- Integrate functional and performance testing into CI/CD pipelines to support rapid feedback cycles.
Minimum Qualifications:
- BS-level degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field.
- 5+ years of experience in CloudOps or DevOps with a focus on cloud application management.
- Hands-on experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure for building and maintaining cloud-based environments.
- Strong knowledge of Linux systems, networking, and cloud security fundamentals.
- Experience with containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes) for functional and performance testing.
- Proficiency with automation tools such as Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible, Helm, or ArgoCD.
- Experience with monitoring tools like Nagios, Grafana, or Prometheus.
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and integrating testing workflows.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience with performance testing tools (JMeter, LoadRunner, Apache Benchmark) and functional testing tools (Selenium, TestNG).
- Experience with microservices architectures and testing them in cloud environments.
- Exposure to large-scale distributed systems for simulating production-like scenarios.
- Experience with performance tuning in cloud environments.
