Job description
from Red Hat careersAbout the Job
The Red Hat Performance and Scale Organization is seeking a software engineer to join our OpenShift Platform Performance and Scale Team. This role involves testing, measuring, and analyzing the performance and scalability of Red Hat OpenShift, the leading application modernization platform built on Kubernetes, to support the evolution of Red Hat OpenShift’s managed and layered offerings and to serve a wide variety of customer use cases.
Red Hat OpenShift’s managed and layered offerings represent some of the most complex, customer-facing surfaces of the OpenShift ecosystem, spanning managed OpenShift services like ROSA, ARO, and OSD; layered products like enterprise container registry and image management through Quay or AI-assisted development via OpenShift Lightspeed; multi-cluster and hybrid cloud management through ACM; and the full Red Hat OpenShift AI platform, among others. Ensuring these products perform reliably at scale is critical to customer trust and Red Hat's ability to compete in an increasingly demanding market. This role will focus on performance and scalability testing across this portfolio, validating that each product meets the real-world demands of enterprise customers from initial deployment through production scale.
