Job Summary

Modernization project for the core business systems of a major US airline.

Responsibilities

- Design and implement a rules engine in Java 17 that evaluates events against parameterized, effective-dated rules

- Implement rules as code: versioned, parameterized, valid for defined effective-date ranges, with a explicit explanation of every evaluation result

- Build robust date and time logic: time zones, DST transitions, rolling windows, and cumulative limits

- Develop event-driven services on Kafka (Amazon MSK) that consume events, evaluate rules, and publish alerts, with guaranteed ordering, idempotency, and replay

- Work with the rule and parameter repository and cumulative-limit state in PostgreSQL (Aurora), together with data engineers

- Write clean, testable domain code with thorough automated tests of rule behavior

- Build services that handle high, bursty volume (over 1M checks per day)

- Support parallel runs and parity checks against the legacy system

- Instrument services with metrics, tracing, and structured logs, and work with DevOps on deployment to AWS

Skills

Must have

- 5 years of commercial backend development in Java with hands-on use of Java 17 features (records; sealed interfaces; pattern matching; switch expressions)

- Strong domain modeling skills; keeping business logic clean; testable; separation from infrastructure (DDD / hexagonal architecture)

- Expert knowledge of java.time

- Instant vs. ZonedDateTime vs. LocalDateTime

- Time zones and DST transitions

- Duration and Period arithmetic

- Interval and rolling-window calculations





- Proven experience implementing complex business rules directly in code (not by configuring a commercial BRMS such as IBM ODM; FICO Blaze; or Pega)

- Parameterized and effective-dated rules

Nice to have

- Temporal and versioned data modeling in PostgreSQL/Aurora: effective-date ranges (range types, exclusion constraints), bitemporal models

- Running Java services on AWS: ECS Fargate, Lambda, API Gateway, plus working knowledge of IAM, Secrets Manager, and KMS

- DynamoDB, and ElastiCache (Redis/Valkey) for caching

- Observability: Micrometer and/or OpenTelemetry, distributed tracing, structured logging, latency percentiles (p95/p99)

- High-volume, low-latency services: bursty load, back-pressure, concurrency, JVM performance tuning

- Embedded expression languages and runtime configuration (changing rule parameters without redeployment)

- Familiarity with S3, Athena, Glue, or Firehose for reporting pipelines

- Legacy system replacement: parallel runs, parity and accuracy validation

- Domain experience in crew or workforce scheduling, or in duty and rest time compliance
