NFT Engineer

Job Description

Senior engineer specializing in Non-Functional Testing (NFT) with focus on performance, resilience, and chaos engineering. Leverages AI/ML and automation to build intelligent testing agents that enable shift-left resilience validation and autonomous failure scenario generation within CI/CD pipelines

• Design and execute comprehensive NFT strategies across performance and resilience domains

• Build and maintain automated NFT frameworks with AI-powered capabilities

• Conduct chaos engineering experiments including latency injection, bandwidth throttling, and failover/DR testing

• Define, monitor, and optimize SLAs, SLOs, and SLIs for system reliability

• Produce detailed test reports with root‑cause analysis and actionable insights

• Collaborate with development teams to embed NFT practices early in the SDLC

• Design and build AI‑powered agents that automate fault injection and resilience validation directly in developer workflows

• Develop intelligent systems that autonomously identify critical failure paths and recommend chaos experiments based on architecture changes

• Leverage LLMs and generative AI to auto‑generate chaos test scenarios from architecture diagrams, runbooks, and incident history

• Implement real‑time resilience scoring mechanisms before code reaches production

• Development Skills :
  Hands‑on experience with Python and/or Java

• Testing Expertise :
  Proven experience in resilience testing, load testing, chaos testing, performance testing, stress testing, soak testing, and spike testing
