Performance Engineering Expectations
A critical aspect of this role is supporting performance-sensitive applications that process large amounts of data. The developer must be comfortable investigating issues across both the Java application and MongoDB database layers.
The candidate should be able to determine whether degraded performance is caused by inefficient MongoDB queries or aggregations, inappropriate indexing, excessive data retrieval, Java memory or garbage-collection pressure, thread contention, concurrency behavior, or inefficient application logic, and then implement and validate an appropriate corrective solution.
