You will also operate in anAI-first engineering environment, where tools likeGitHub Copilot and Windsurf, Claudeare used to accelerate development — with a strong expectation thatyou validate, refine, and productionize outputs to meet the security by design with enterprise-grade standards.

Key Responsibilities

Full Stack Development

- Design and buildscalable microservicesusingJava, Spring Boot, and REST APIs

- Define explicit API contracts (OpenAPI/Swagger) with consistent error handling and versioning

- Implementevent-driven architecturesusing Kafka or equivalent messaging systems

- Security and data handling risks

- Performance and scalability

- AI responsibly in:

- Code generation, debugging, and clear documentation

- Unit Test case creation and coverage improvement

- Design systems that are:

- AI-friendly (transparent APIs, structured data, consistent contracts)
