Role Overview

We are looking for an experienced Senior Java Engineer who will play a key role in designing, building, and optimizing backend services that power critical business workflows. This role requires strong technical depth, ownership, and the ability to collaborate closely with cross-functional partners. You will act as a hands-on engineer contributing to architecture, development, testing, and operational excellence across our platform.

What You’ll Do

• Design, develop, and maintain scalable Java-based backend services using Spring and Spring Boot.
• Build robust and secure RESTful APIs that integrate seamlessly across systems.
• Implement caching, performance improvements, and low-latency solutions using AWS ElasticCache.
• Work with NoSQL datastores to design data models and ensure high-performance access patterns.
• Deploy and operate services in Kubernetes, ensuring availability, reliability, and performance.
• Build, maintain, and optimize CI/CD pipelines in Jenkins to drive high-quality, automated deployments.
• Contribute to architecture decisions, technical design documents, and system diagrams.
• Collaborate with Product Managers to break down requirements into scalable technical solutions.
• Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code and participate in peer code reviews.
• Support production systems, troubleshoot complex issues, and contribute to root-cause analysis.
• Participate in on-call rotations (approx. one week every two months).
• Mentor junior engineers informally by sharing best practices and raising the technical bar.

Role Expectations

• Operate as a self-starter with strong ownership and accountability.
• Execute assigned tasks reliably and actively contribute to daily stand-ups and sprint ceremonies.
• Proactively identify risks, detect blockers early, and communicate them to leadership.
• Demonstrate strong problem-solving skills, balancing long-term architecture with immediate delivery needs.
• Take end-to-end responsibility — from design through production deployment.
• Partner effectively with cross-functional teams, promoting clear communication and alignment.
• (Preferred, not required) Experience working on Referral Management, Affiliate Platforms, or Partner Management Systems is a plus.

Technical Requirements

Candidates must have strong, hands-on expertise in:

• Java (8+) with Spring / Spring Boot
• REST API development and distributed backend systems
• AWS ElasticCache (Redis)
• NoSQL technologies (e.g., DynamoDB, MongoDB, or similar)
• Kubernetes for container orchestration and service deployment
