Job Description Position
Job Description Position -Technical Architect – Java
Company -Anoud Technologies
Experience -12 – 20 Years
Location -Chennai (Work from Office)
Employment Type -Full-Time

About the Role
Anoud Technologies is looking for a hands-on Technical Architect – Java to drive the design, development, and delivery of scalable applications. This is not an Enterprise-level Architect role — we are looking for a strong, hands-on technologist who can code, build Proof of Concepts (POCs), mentor a team, and actively contribute to solutioning at the project/product level, while working closely with senior architects and business stakeholders on the broader enterprise architecture. The ideal candidate is a go-getter who thrives on solving real problems through rapid prototyping and clean, scalable code, rather than someone focused purely on high-level enterprise architecture documentation.
Key Responsibilities
Lead end-to-end technical delivery of Java-based applications, from design through deployment.
Build Proof of Concepts (POCs) to validate new technologies, patterns, and solution approaches before full-scale implementation.
Drive and support the migration of legacy monolithic systems to microservices-based architecture .
Identify the right use cases and fit points for microservices — evaluate where a microservices approach adds real value versus where a monolith is sufficient.
Identify appropriate use cases for Apache Kafka — determine where event-driven / messaging architecture should be introduced in the system landscape.
Own hands-on coding , code reviews, and bug fixing ,



while working within the broader enterprise architecture guidelines set by senior/enterprise architects.
Define and contribute to the technical roadmap for products/platforms in collaboration with stakeholders.
Guide and mentor development teams on best practices, coding standards, and design patterns.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (QA, DevOps, Business Analysts, Product Owners) to ensure timely and quality delivery.
Participate in technical discussions, estimations, and solution design sessions.

Technical Skills Required
Core Language
Robust hands-on experience in Java
Java 21 – basic working knowledge of newer language features (records, pattern matching, virtual threads, etc.) is expected

Frameworks
Spring Framework – solid understanding of layered architecture and modules (Spring Core, Spring Boot, Spring MVC, Spring Data, Spring Security, Spring Cloud, etc.)

Architecture & Design
Practical understanding of Microservices architecture — knowing when and where to apply it (not just theoretical knowledge)
Experience with monolithic to microservices migration for legacy systems

Messaging & Streaming
Working knowledge of Apache Kafka and use-case identification for messaging/event-driven architecture




Exposure to Message Queues (Kafka / RabbitMQ / ActiveMQ or similar)

Database
Strong experience with Oracle DB as the backend database
Understanding of DB integration with messaging queues

Caching
Hands-on experience with Redis for caching implementation

DevOps / Tools
Proficiency with Git for source control and branching strategies
Experience with Jenkins for CI/CD pipeline setup and management

Good to Have
Basic knowledge of AI (AI-assisted development tools, LLM integration basics, or applied AI concepts) is an added advantage

Ideal Candidate Profile
Previously held a Technical Lead / Senior Lead Developer designation and is now ready to step into a Technical Architect – Java role OR has equivalent hands-on architecture-level experience.
Strong balance of coding ability + solution design — this is a hands-on builder/architect role, not a pure Enterprise Architect role.
Comfortable working on POCs and rapid prototyping to validate ideas.
Exposure to enterprise architecture concepts , but primary focus remains on hands-on technical leadership.
Experience driving legacy modernization initiatives (monolith → microservices).
A go-getter attitude — proactive, ownership-driven, and comfortable navigating ambiguity.
Strong problem-solving, communication, and stakeholder management skills.

Qualifications
Bachelor's/master’s degree in computer science, Engineering, or related field.
12–20 years of relevant experience in Java application development, with proven experience in technical/solution architecture.
