Department : Cloud & Data Engineering Years of Experience : 8 to 10 ## Description Agentic AI engineer with prior great J2EE experience who can design agents, design MCP servers to connect various nodes of J2EE and make entire cycle agentic, The engineer will design specialized AI agents and Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers that securely expose application components, repositories, APIs, databases, build/test systems, documentation, and other enterprise tools to agents. The objective is to create an end-to-end agentic software engineering and modernization lifecycle, covering application discovery, impact analysis, development, testing, validation, deployment support, and operational knowledge.Design and implement AI agents and multi-agent workflows for enterprise J2EE applications. * Architect MCP servers, tools and resources that provide controlled access to different nodes/components of the J2EE ecosystem. * Connect agents with: * Java/J2EE source repositories * Spring / Spring Boot applications * REST/SOAP APIs * Application servers and middleware * Databases and SQL * Messaging systems * Build pipelines * Test automation frameworks * Application documentation and knowledge repositories Design specialized agents for: * Code analysis * Dependency discovery * Impact analysis * Code generation/refactoring * Unit and integration testing * Code review * Defect analysis * Documentation * Deployment-readiness validation Build orchestration patterns where multiple agents collaborate to execute end-to-end engineering workflows. Develop agent memory/context strategies for understanding large and complex J2EE applications. Design tool-calling and MCP patterns with appropriate authentication, authorization, auditability and human-in-the-loop controls. Define guardrails to prevent uncontrolled code changes or production actions. Integrate agentic solutions with enterprise Git/Bitbucket, CI/CD, APIs, databases and engineering platforms. Build reusable agent/MCP frameworks that can scale across multiple applications rather than developing application-specific prototypes. Partner with application architects, engineering teams, DevOps and AI teams to identify high-value opportunities for agentic automation. Establish observability and evaluation mechanisms to measure agent accuracy, execution success, failures and human intervention.
