Data, automation, and AI are quickly becoming the center of every business decision - and Alteryx is leading the transformation.\nYou'll be working on the challenges that sit at the heart of modern business. No matter your role, the work you do will help organizations move faster, see more clearly, and tackle questions that used to feel impossible.\nIf you're ready to meet the moment with innovation, curiosity, and excellence, there's a place for you here.\nWe are hiring a Software Engineer to help build Alteryx’s next-generation Performance Engineering Platform.\nThis role is for a software engineer with 3+ years of software engineering experience, including exposure to developer tools, automation, CI/CD, performance testing, or cloud-native systems.\nThe goal is to help engineering teams test, understand, and improve performance earlier in the SDLC through developer-first, AI-assisted tooling.\nThis is not a traditional QA or manual performance testing role. This is an engineering role focused on frameworks, automation, observability, CI/CD integration, and agentic AI workflows.\nWork Location : Pune (Hybrid)\nWhat You’ll Do\nBuild features for an agentic, AI-first self-service performance platform.\nDevelop reusable tools, templates, scripts, SDKs, and workflows for API, UI, service, and code performance testing.\nHelp integrate performance checks into CI/CD pipelines and developer workflows.\nBuild AI-assisted workflows for performance test creation, execution, result analysis, defect creation, and service-team notification.\nSupport performance validation for Critical User Journeys, releases, and scale events.\nHelp standardize performance test inputs, outputs, thresholds, evidence, and reporting.\nIntegrate with observability tools such as Datadog, logs, traces, dashboards, and reporting systems.\nWork with product engineering, SRE, platform, QA, and architecture teams.\nContribute to documentation, examples, and onboarding material for development teams.\nWhat We’re Looking For\n3+ years of professional software engineering experience.\nProgramming experience in Python, TypeScript, Go, or similar languages.\nUnderstanding of APIs, distributed systems, cloud services, and service-to-service communication.\nExperience with automation, CI/CD, internal tools, or developer workflows.\nFamiliarity with performance testing concepts such as load, spike, soak, stress, capacity, or regression testing.\nFamiliarity with observability using metrics, logs, traces, dashboards, or alerts.\nAbility to build simple, maintainable, and reusable software.\nGood communication and collaboration skills.\nMust Have\nExperience with tools such as k6, Locust, and Grasshopper\nExperience in Python and TypeScript.\nExperience with Datadog, OpenTelemetry, Grafana, Prometheus, or InfluxDB.\nExperience with Kubernetes, cloud-native systems, or large-scale SaaS platforms.\nNice To Have\nExperience with tools such as Playwright\nExperience with SLOs, SLIs, Apdex, error budgets, or burn-rate alerting.\nExperience building AI agents, MCPs, AI-assisted developer tools, or agentic automation workflows.\nExperience with Jira automation, defect routing, or engineering dashboards.\nWhat Success Looks Like\nDevelopers can create and run performance tests more easily.\nPerformance checks become part of normal development and CI/CD workflows.\nAI-assisted workflows help teams generate tests, analyze failures, and create actionable defects.\nPerformance results are clear, consistent, and useful.\nProduct teams can detect regressions earlier and improve service performance faster.\n Why This Role Matters\nPerformance is critical to customer trust. This role will help Alteryx build a scalable, AI-first, self-service performance engineering model used across engineering teams.\nFind yourself checking a lot of these boxes but doubting whether you should apply? At Alteryx, we support a growth mindset for our associates through all stages of their careers. If you meet some of the requirements and you share our values, we encourage you to apply. As part of our ongoing commitment to a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace, we’re invested in building teams with a wide variety of backgrounds, identities, and experiences.\nThis position involves access to software/technology that is subject to U.S. export controls. Any job offer made will be contingent upon the applicant’s capacity to serve in compliance with U.S. export controls.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4528,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"India","iso":"IN","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Data Integration & ETL Tools","Data Science & Notebook Platforms"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-07-01T00:00:00Z"},{"event":"close","at":"2026-08-12T11:36:46Z"},{"event":"reopen","at":"2026-10-09T04:08:20Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":13,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.452,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":101,"expected_fill_days":39,"reasons":["conf:3","velocity","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-10-10T05:45:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/alteryx-software-development-engineer-in-test-performance-focus","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/alteryx-software-development-engineer-in-test-performance-focus.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-11T20:52:39Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":9322,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4949},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4949"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Falteryx-software-development-engineer-in-test-performance-focus"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Falteryx-software-development-engineer-in-test-performance-focus"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Falteryx-software-development-engineer-in-test-performance-focus"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/alteryx-software-development-engineer-in-test-performance-focus\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Falteryx-software-development-engineer-in-test-performance-focus"}]}
