Senior SAP Performance Engineer

Job description

Join the team that serves as Apple's nerve center, our Information Systems and Technology group. From Apple Pay to the Apple website to our data centers around the globe, you'll help design and run the substantial systems that countless employees and customers rely on every day. The SAP Quality Engineering team safeguards the performance health of Apple’s SAP production systems. We are building a performance engineering presence in Shanghai to support SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) applications within Apple’s global SAP landscape.

You will own how those applications behave under real load — end to end. This is a hands-on individual contributor role. You will design realistic performance test scenarios, run experiments, read traces, and own production incidents. You bring broad, battle-tested experience optimizing applications hosted on cloud hyperscalers, and you apply that depth to the SAP BTP stack on various hyperscalers. Proven ability to design realistic, high-fidelity performance test scenarios — translating production behavior and business workflows into workload models, concurrency profiles, data volumes, and think-time distributions that exercise the system the way real load does.

A test is only as good as the scenario behind it, and you build scenarios that surface mixed-load and endurance behavior rather than best-case single-user timings.
