Senior Full Stack Java Engineer

As a Senior Associate Technology L2, you are more than a developer; you are a system builder. You will be responsible for the end-to-end design, architecture, and implementation of critical Java-based microservices solutions. You will translate high-level architectural guidance into high-performance, scalable applications that drive digital transformation for our clients. We are looking for a hardcore technologist who thrives on solving complex problems.

Your Impact

• Architect and own the detailed design of microservices, translating high-level solution architecture into robust, scalable, and maintainable code.
• Design, develop, and deploy production-grade Java microservices in a predominantly AWS environment.
• Drive technical decision-making for key system components, evaluating trade-offs between performance, cost, and complexity.
• Optimize application performance, scalability, and security through meticulous design and implementation.
• Implement clean, well-documented RESTful APIs and integrate services with cloud-native technologies.
• Ensure rigorous code quality and maintainability through leadership in code reviews and by setting high standards.
• Troubleshoot and resolve deep technical issues across the stack in a timely manner.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of our engineering practices, toolchains, and deployment pipelines.

• Expert in backend Java development with a strong focus on building and operating microservices.
• Demonstrated expertise in system design, with the ability to decompose complex problems into well-defined services and data models.
• Deep, hands-on experience designing and deploying production services on AWS (e.g., ECS/EKS, Lambda, S3, RDS, DynamoDB). Experience with Azure is a plus.
• Working knowledge of React/Next.js with experience in building modern web applications.
• Hands-on experience with Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, and related Java frameworks.
• Proficiency in RESTful API design, development, and security best practices.
• Strong understanding of containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines.
• Proficiency in shell scripting (e.g., Bash) for automation and operational tasks.
• Knowledge of SQL and NoSQL databases (e.g., MySQL, MongoDB, or Cassandra).
• Familiarity with messaging systems like Kafka or RabbitMQ.
• Exceptional problem-solving and analytical skills.
