About This Role
- Improve response times for new applications supporting the Mastercard Settings program by designing and running performance tests and driving resolution of failures and bottlenecks.
- Measure system performance—including throughput, P95/P99 latency, query performance, concurrency, and utilization—and improve the performance environment through code, automation, and tools.
- Partner with development teams, coach junior engineers, and present performance findings to stakeholders.
Minimum Requirements
- Work Experience Required: Not explicitly mentioned in the JD.
- Strong software engineering experience with Java and Spring Boot, plus performance debugging using APM tools such as Dynatrace, Splunk, JProfiler, or JMH.
- Experience writing JMeter scripts and running load generation tools such as BlazeMeter; strong PostgreSQL and Oracle query optimization experience.
- Experience with the payments industry, including areas such as ISO 8583 messaging, the four-party model, or payment applications.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- A performance-focused engineer who can investigate bottlenecks across Java applications, databases, middleware, and vendor software, then turn findings into measurable improvements.
- A candidate with payments-domain familiarity, especially with payment messaging or applications, is likely to fit the program well.
- Someone comfortable partnering across development teams, sharing technical results with stakeholders, and supporting junior engineers in a geographically distributed environment.
