We are looking for a visionary Senior Java Developer to spearhead the development of high-throughput, cloud-native backend systems. In this role, you will go beyond simple coding to architect resilient microservices, design event-driven data pipelines using Kafka, and implement advanced caching strategies to ensure sub-second latency for millions of users. You will serve as a technical leader, bridging the gap between business requirements and scalable technical execution.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
1. System Architecture & Development
* Microservices Mastery: Design and implement loosely coupled, scalable microservices using Java 17/21 and Spring Boot 3.x.
* Event-Driven Design: Architect real-time data streaming solutions using Apache Kafka, focusing on producers, consumers, and KStream applications for eventual consistency.
* API Excellence: Develop secure, high-performance RESTful and Graph QL APIs with advanced documentation (Swagger/Open API) and security (OAuth2/JWT).
2. Cloud & Infrastructure Strategy
Cloud-Native Migration:
Lead the transition of legacy monolithic systems to cloud providers like AWS, Azure, or GCP using serverless (Lambda/Functions) and containerized services.
Orchestration & Scale: Manage containerized environments using Docker and Kubernetes (EKS/GKE) to ensure high availability and auto-scaling.
3. Data Persistence & Performance Tuning
Polyglot Persistence: Manage complex data models across relational (Postgre SQL, Oracle) and No SQL (Mongo DB, Cassandra) databases.
Distributed Caching: Implement multi-level caching strategies using Redis or Memcached to optimize hot-path data retrieval and reduce database load.
Query Optimization: Fine-tune complex SQL, JPA/Hibernate mappings, and database indexes for peak performance.
4. Leadership & Engineering Excellence
Mentorship: Lead code reviews and technical grooming sessions to foster a culture of quality and skilled growth within the engineering team.
Dev Ops Integration: Drive CI/CD maturity
