Software Developer (#669863E)

Will build secure, extensible, and cloud-ready backend microservices using Spring Boot, Spring Security, and Java concurrency utilities, with strong focus on performance, low latency, and fault-tolerant service architecture. Implement complex business logic, domain models, Redis caching strategies, and data transformation layers using Spring Data JPA, Java Streams, and Hibernate ORM, ensuring fast access paths and maintainable components. Optimize high throughput request pipelines by integrating custom error handling, structured logging with SLF4J/Logback, and latency-aware exception propagation patterns to strengthen reliability under peak loads. Write clean, modular, reusable code applying SOLID, clean coding principles, design patterns, and Java Collections framework while leveraging modern Maven-based dependency management and code reviews. Engineer distributed, event-driven streaming pipelines with Apache Kafka, Kafka Streams, and JSON/Avro message serialization, processing high-volume asynchronous event traffic reliably and efficiently. Design and execute asynchronous background workflows using Kafka Consumers, Scheduled Executors, and CompletableFuture, implementing retry logic, DLQ routing, and transient failure recovery. Ensure high-availability message processing by configuring Kafka consumer groups, offset commits, partition strategies, and backpressure handling, maintaining at-least-once message delivery guarantees. Integrate cloud-based messaging systems such as AWS SNS, AWS SQS, and Spring Cloud Messaging to enable loosely coupled microservices and seamless cross-system communication patterns. Deploy applications across AWS using EC2 compute, S3 object storage, IAM security policies, and automated infrastructure provisioning aligned with cloud best practices. Containerize applications using Docker, ECS, and Kubernetes, enabling easy portability, faster rollouts, health checks, and consistent execution across non-prod and production environments. Tune database connectivity using Hibernate/JPA connection pools, HikariCP, and optimized caching, improving throughput for high-concurrency transactional workloads. Ensure high-quality releases through unit testing, integration testing, and mocking in JUnit + Mockito, while integrating code coverage gating via SonarQube and Maven Surefire plugins. Actively monitoring production systems using Splunk logs, CloudWatch metrics, and Grafana dashboards, responding quickly to incidents, and participating in rotational on-call responsibilities. Improve platform observability by integrating distributed tracing with OpenTelemetry/Jaeger, structured log enrichment, and proactively alerting profiles to detect service degradation early. Perform release-day deployment monitoring with Jenkins pipelines, Kubernetes rollouts and Canary testing, applying rollback or hotfix procedures when errors surfaced post-production. Maintain structured deployment documents, changing logs, and version history in Confluence, GitHub Wiki, and Release Notes repositories, ensuring auditing and traceability compliance. Communicate architectural decisions and solution approaches clearly using sequence diagrams, Confluence documentation, and API Swagger/OAS specifications for engineering alignment.
