Strong knowledge of frontend state-management patterns using Redux Toolkit or comparable technologies.
Demonstrated ability to apply object-oriented design, SOLID principles, layered architecture, and reusable software design patterns.
Experience building automated tests with tools such as Jest, React Testing Library, JUnit, Mockito, Playwright, or similar frameworks.
Experience with containerized cloud applications, including Docker, Kubernetes, and Helm.
Familiarity with Azure services such as AKS, Microsoft identity platforms, Key Vault, Redis, Cosmos DB, and Application Insights.
Experience with observability practices, including structured logging, distributed tracing, metrics, and OpenTelemetry.
Working knowledge of authentication, authorization, token management, secure coding, and protection of sensitive data.
Experience with feature-management platforms such as LaunchDarkly or Statsig.
Strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines, source control, pull-request practices, quality gates, and automated deployment.

Responsibilities

Design and deliver full-stack capabilities across React applications, Java services, GraphQL APIs, and Flutter applications.
Lead technical design for features spanning micro-frontends, Backend-for-Frontend services, downstream integrations, and mobile experiences.
Develop React and TypeScript applications using Webpack Module Federation, React Router, Redux Toolkit, and shared component libraries.
Design and maintain Java 21 and Spring Boot services that aggregate downstream APIs into stable, user-focused contracts.
Develop GraphQL schemas, resolvers, batch mappings, and Apollo Client integrations.
Contribute to Flutter and Dart feature packages using Riverpod, repository-based data access, shared design systems, and reusable components.
Apply established patterns—including facade, builder, mapper, repository, strategy, visitor, observer, factory, adapter, and rule engine—to create modular and testable solutions.
Define clear ownership of business logic across presentation, orchestration, application, and domain layers.
Establish resilient integration patterns for REST and GraphQL services, including error handling, caching, retries, authorization, and contract compatibility.
Use feature flags, telemetry, and progressive delivery practices to release changes safely.
Mentor engineers through technical guidance, design reviews, pair programming, and constructive code reviews.
Collaborate with product, design, architecture, security, and engineering partners to turn business needs into effective technical solutions.
Improve engineering practices, reusable patterns, documentation, and development workflows across teams.
