Nice To Haves

• Familiarity with Spring AI, LangChain4j, or AI platform APIs is strongly preferred.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and optimize high-throughput Spring Boot microservices and RESTful APIs ensuring high performance, scalability, and reliability.
• Integrate Large Language Models (LLMs) and ML models into existing enterprise systems using Java-native AI frameworks (e.g., Spring AI, LangChain4j).
• Implement Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and Agentic AI patterns, autonomously connecting AI systems with internal enterprise data and external APIs.
• Architect and manage optimal data solutions across relational (SQL) databases and vector databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, Pinecone, Elasticsearch) to support AI memory and context.
• Participate in architectural decisions, collaborate with cross-functional teams, mentor junior developers, and enforce clean code standards.
