• In-depth knowledge of Core Java, JVM internals, concurrency, multi-threading, Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and RESTful API architecture.
• Strong proficiency in modern Angular, TypeScript, HTML5/CSS3, responsive UI design, and single-page application (SPA) architecture.
• Extensive experience with relational databases (Oracle, PostgreSQL, MS SQL, or Sybase), complex query tuning, schema design, and transaction management.
• Practical experience with microservices architecture, REST/JSON APIs, and message brokers/event streaming (e.g., Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, or JMS).
• Solid foundation in unit testing and mocking frameworks (JUnit, Mockito, Jasmine, Karma, or Jest).
• Familiarity with Git/Bitbucket, Maven/Gradle, Jenkins, Docker, and standard deployment automation tools.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Technology, or a related quantitative field (or equivalent practical experience).

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, test, deploy, and maintain robust full-stack applications leveraging Java microservices and modern Angular frontends.
• Architect modular, extensible services capable of performing high-volume calculations.

• Profile and optimize backend queries and API performance to ensure low-latency data retrieval and reliable processing of large billing datasets.
• Ensure data integrity, transactional consistency (ACID compliance), and auditability across all financial accounting workflows.
• Take full end-to-end ownership of the software lifecycle—from requirement analysis and technical design to implementation, automated testing, deployment, and post-release support.
• Drive iterative delivery using Agile/Scrum methodologies, collaborating with cross-functional teams in sprint planning, backlog grooming, and demos.
• Champion test-driven development (TDD) and automated testing across unit, integration, and end-to-end testing frameworks (JUnit, Mockito, Jasmine/Karma, Cypress).
• Integrate automated builds, static code analysis (SonarQube), vulnerability scanning, and automated deployments into enterprise CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Bitbucket, Harness, or similar).
• Participate in platform modernization initiatives, including containerization (Docker, OpenShift/Kubernetes) and cloud-ready architectural enhancements.
