Guidewire Developer Analyst, K6 Performance Testing

Description: Guidewire Developer Analyst, Cloud Feature Adoption A Quebec-based insurer is expanding its Guidewire team, responsible for evolving and optimizing its Guidewire suite for property and casualty insurance. You will be at the heart of the adoption of new features delivered by Guidewire as part of cloud updates, across PolicyCenter, BillingCenter, ClaimCenter, and the Data Platform. This role is central to the delivery process: you will evaluate each new feature, analyze its impact on existing processes, and then develop deployment and adoption plans that enable the organization to fully leverage it. Job description: The client is looking for a Performance Test Engineer to join the Guidewire team. Their daily work involves designing, automating, and executing load scenarios with Grafana K6 to validate the capacity, stability, and resilience of the Guidewire suite during updates and new features. Despite the title "Guidewire Developer," the core of the role is not functional platform development, but performance engineering: K6 scripting in JavaScript/TypeScript, REST API calls, analysis of results using observability tools, identification of bottlenecks, and optimization recommendations. Guidewire and damage assurance processes are presented as assets, not requirements: a candidate with strong load testing skills but no prior Guidewire experience is still a suitable candidate. The target level is intermediate to senior-intermediate. The profiles not to be confused with this role are the functional Guidewire developer (Gosu, configuration) and the functional QA tester (Selenium, Cypress), which do not cover performance. Requirements What we are looking for: Experience with the Guidewire Cloud platform on at least one module (PolicyCenter, ClaimCenter, BillingCenter, or Data Platform) Understanding of Guidewire upgrade cycles and releases Knowledge of modern APIs, integrations, and application architectures Ability to analyze the impact of new features on existing processes Experience in an Agile environment (Scrum or Kanban) Required: Proficiency in Grafana K6 for developing and automating load and performance test scenarios JavaScript/TypeScript for creating K6 scripts Understanding of web protocols (HTTP/HTTPS, REST API) Analysis and interpretation of performance results, identification of bottlenecks (application, infrastructure, database), and optimization recommendations Desired: Observability and monitoring tools: Datadog, Dynatrace, or equivalent CI/CD pipelines: GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or equivalent Understanding of cloud architectures and distributed applications Asset: Orchestrator TestKube testing Guidewire platform (PolicyCenter, ClaimCenter, BillingCenter) Property and casualty insurance business processes

The role focuses on performance engineering by designing, automating, and executing load scenarios to validate the capacity and stability of the Guidewire suite. You will analyze performance results, identify system bottlenecks, and provide optimization recommendations for cloud updates.

Candidates must have proficiency in Grafana K6, JavaScript/TypeScript, and an understanding of web protocols and application architectures. Experience with the Guidewire Cloud platform and performance testing in an Agile environment is required.
