- Strong understanding of HTTP/HTTPS, REST/SOAP APIs, web services, authentication, distributed systems, databases, networks, and common performance bottlenecks.
- Proven ability to derive workload models from production or forecast data and define measurable non-functional acceptance criteria.
- Experience integrating performance tests with continuous-delivery pipelines and source control.
- Strong analytical, troubleshooting, stakeholder-management, documentation, and presentation skills.
- Professional English communication; Arabic is an advantage.Preferred Qualifications:
