Come build what the market has been missing.    Octaura is a technology company transforming how some of the world’s largest, least digitized markets operate. In loans and CLOs, trillions of dollars still move through phones, emails, and PDFs because the right infrastructure hasn’t existed — until now.   We’re applying AI, real-time data, and modern software design to asset classes long overlooked by fintech. Our platforms turn fragmented information into intelligence, manual workflows into automation, and legacy conventions into scalable market infrastructure.   You’ll join a high-impact, collaborative team building the systems these markets need to become more transparent, efficient, and connected.   Role Summary A performance-first senior SDET engineering role for a hands-on contributor who can own performance testing strategy, contribute significantly to automation framework architecture, and help advance AI engineering practices within the SDET organization. About the Role We are looking for a highly technical SDET engineer to join our Quality Engineering organization and be a part of performance engineering, automation architecture, and test infrastructure development team. This is a hands-on engineering position for someone who enjoys solving complex technical problems, designing scalable testing solutions, and improving engineering productivity through modern software development practices and AI-assisted workflows. The ideal candidate must have performance testing expertise, strong software engineering fundamentals, and the ability to contribute to the evolution of automation frameworks and engineering practices across the organization. This role is expected to be a senior technical contributor within the SDET organization, helping shape testing strategy, mentor team members, and drive engineering excellence. Role Priorities The primary focus for this role is agentic development practices, Performance engineering strategy, workload modeling, bottleneck analysis, capacity testing, and scalable performance validation. As an IC, you will be heavily involved in automation framework architecture, TypeScript/Playwright platform work, code reviews, mentoring, and AI-assisted engineering practices. This is not just an automation scripting role. Role Responsibilities Performance Engineering Actively participate in performance testing initiatives across multiple applications and services. Design and execute load, stress, endurance, scalability, spike, resilience, and capacity tests. Define realistic workload models, performance validation strategies, baselines, and success criteria. Analyze applications, databases, infrastructure, and architectural bottlenecks. Work closely with software engineers and architects to improve system performance and scalability. Establish performance testing standards, best practices, and reporting methodologies. Drive integration of performance testing into CI/CD pipelines and regular engineering workflows. Define and track performance KPIs, quality metrics, and actionable performance signals. Mentor engineers on performance testing methodology, interpretation of results, and common anti-patterns. Automation Engineering Design, develop, and maintain automation framework components and shared test infrastructure. Improve framework scalability, maintainability, readability, and developer experience. Create reusable libraries, utilities, fixtures, helpers, and common engineering patterns. Participate in framework architecture decisions and provide meaningful code review feedback. Help reduce technical debt through refactoring, modernization, and stronger engineering standards. Support the team in building reliable, concise, and maintainable test automation across UI, API, integration, and end-to-end layers. Write clean, maintainable, and productio
