1. Test scenario generation
2. Workload modeling
3. Synthetic data generation
4. Test script creation and maintenance
5. Anomaly detection
6. Bottleneck identification
7. Root cause analysis
8. Predictive capacity planning

• Partner with development, QA, SRE, DevOps, product, and architecture teams to define performance requirements and non-functional acceptance criteria.
• Analyze application, infrastructure, database, and network behavior under load and provide actionable optimization recommendations.
• Integrate performance testing into CI/CD pipelines and support shift-left performance practices.
• Leverage observability platforms and AI-assisted analytics to correlate logs, metrics, traces, and events.
• Establish performance baselines, SLAs, SLOs, and KPIs for critical systems.
• Drive continuous improvement in performance engineering processes, tooling, governance, and automation.
• Mentor team members on both classical performance engineering techniques and emerging AI-assisted engineering practices.
