Qualifications
- Experience - 9+ years of experience in application development - Strong backend development and design experience with Java and Spring Boot microservices - Experience designing and building highly scalable, distributed, cloud-native systems - Experience modernizing legacy/brownfield systems alongside greenfield development - Background in Agile/DevOps environments supporting large-scale enterprise implementations
- Technical Skills - Advanced Java and Spring Boot expertise; strong REST API design and microservices architecture - Hands-on experience with GCP (GKE, Pub/Sub, BigQuery) or equivalent cloud platform - Solid understanding of CI/CD practices and pipeline integration (GitLab CI/CD, Terraform, Helm)
Responsibilities
- Technical Leadership and Delivery - Own end-to-end technical delivery for a functional area of OMS (e.g., Order Placement, Order Modifications, Order Lookup, Shipping/Routing), from design through production support - Translate high-level business requirements into detailed functional requirements, technical designs, and development-ready JIRA tasks - Lead technical design reviews and code reviews; set and enforce coding standards, architectural patterns, and clean-code practices across the team - Drive technical readiness ahead of major release cycles — proactively surface risks, coverage gaps, and dependencies before development begins, not after
- Hands-On Engineering - Design and build scalable, cloud-native microservices using Java and Spring Boot, deployed on GCP (GKE) - Architect solutions for high-throughput, event-driven workflows (Pub/Sub, Kafka-style messaging) with an eye toward fault tolerance, decoupling, and observability - Maintain a consistent, visible individual contribution — commits, PRs, and production deployments — that sets the technical bar for the team
- Team Development and Mentorship - Mentor engineers through structured peer code review, technical coaching sessions, and module ownership assignments - Build team self-sufficiency by delegating production deployment responsibility, module ownership, and meeting facilitation to grow junior and mid-level engineers - Champion AI-assisted engineering practices (e.g., Claude Code) across the team to accelerate design, implementation, and review
- Resiliency, Security, and Operations - Ensure designs account for security, redundancy, disaster recovery, data integrity, and monitoring from the outset - Own change management discipline for your area — mission plans, Change Requests, runbooks, and rollback procedures — to support a zero major/critical incident bar - Participate in on-call rotation and lead incident response, root-cause analysis, and postmortems for your functional area - Drive proactive vulnerability remediation and dependency upgrades (Spring Boot, Java, Terraform modules, Helm charts) ahead of pipeline enforcement deadlines
