About the Role

We are building a cohesive AI engineering team embedded within a global payments leader's Services organisation, delivering customer-facing analytics, insights, and AI-driven products. We are looking for strong Java backend engineers who can build scalable, production-grade services that power conversational bots, multi-agent systems, and domain-specific AI agents.

You will own backend service development for AI-enabled products designing robust APIs, integrating LLM and retrieval components, and ensuring the platform scales securely and reliably in a regulated payments workplace. This is an engineering-first role focused on rapid, high-quality delivery and short time-to-market.

Key Responsibilities
- Design, build, and maintain scalable Java backend services and microservices (Spring Boot / Spring Cloud) powering AI-enabled products.
- Develop and expose secure,



well-documented REST APIs consumed by AI agents, conversational interfaces, and front-end product teams.
- Integrate backend services with LLM APIs, RAG pipelines, vector stores, and agentic/multi-agent workflows.
- Build resilient, high-throughput services with strong attention to performance, latency, observability, and fault tolerance.
- Implement enterprise-grade security, data protection, and compliance controls appropriate to a payments environment (PII handling, access control, audit).
- Collaborate closely with AI/ML engineers, data scientists, architects, and product teams within an integrated pod, contributing from day one.
- Participate in code reviews, architecture reviews, and CI/CD-driven delivery; uphold engineering quality and velocity standards.

Must-Have Skills

This role requires strong capability in both Java backend engineering and applied AI/GenAI both are firm requirements.
