You will work on enterprise-grade applications using Java, Python, and Angular to develop APIs, services, and data layers that manage trusted, high-quality enterprise data across integrations, workflows, and analytics. As part of an AI-first engineering organization, you will use AI tools as a core part of designing, building, testing, and operating software. You will be expected to apply AI to accelerate development, improve code quality, and strengthen problem-solving. You will work closely with engineers, architects, and product teams to deliver scalable, reliable, production-ready backend capabilities that address real customer needs

What you will do:

• Design, develop, and maintain backend services using Java, Spring Boot, and REST APIs
• Contribute to data models, API contracts, and service integrations for MDM workflows
• Build systems supporting data ingestion, transformation, governance, and integration pipelines (aligned to MDM/DI ecosystem)
• Use AI-powered tools to accelerate coding, debugging, testing, and design workflows
• Implement clean architecture patterns (controller, service, repository) with strong separation of concerns
• Implement structured logging and observability patterns (SLF4J, MDC context, correlation IDs) to enable production debugging and monitoring
• Write high-quality unit and integration tests with proper mocking strategies to ensure code quality and maintainability
• Debug and optimize performance, scalability, and reliability of backend systems
• Apply observability best practices (logging, tracing, correlation IDs) to support production monitoring
• Participate in Agile ceremonies, code reviews, and CI/CD practices
• Collaborate cross-functionally with frontend, QA, product, and platform teams
• Continuously learn and evaluate new technologies, especially in AI/agentic workflows and backend platforms

What we are looking for:

Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in computer science or related field
• Years of experience: 1–2 years of experience in software development
• Specific technical or software skills required Java
• Strong understanding of Java and object-oriented programming
• Understanding of API design and application architecture
• Basic knowledge of relational or NoSQL databases (SQL Server, Oracle, MongoDB, etc.)
• Test-driven development mindset with understanding of unit test patterns, mocking strategies, and test quality gates
• Understanding of concurrent programming fundamentals, including thread-safety contracts, immutability, and shared state management
• Familiarity with async/reactive patterns (CompletableFuture, async services, event-driven workflows)
• Strong problem-solving and communication skills

AI Skills/Knowledge:

• Hands-on experience using AI tools for coding, debugging, and productivity (Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, etc.)
• Ability to evaluate and validate AI-generated code for correctness and performance
• Interest in applying AI to data platforms, APIs, and backend workflows
• Eagerness to adopt AI-assisted development practices as part of daily work

Preferred Skills (a plus but not required):

• Experience with Spring Boot, Hibernate, or microservices architecture
• Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS, Azure) and distributed systems
• Database knowledge (SQL/NoSQL)
• Understanding of data platforms, MDM concepts, or data integration pipelines
• Basic frontend awareness
• Structured logging and observability (SLF4J, Logback, MDC context, correlation IDs, Datadog integration)
• Event-driven architecture patterns, messaging standards (CloudEvents, async workflows, dead-letter routing)
• Data mapping patterns and DTO design
• ORM and query optimization (Hibernate, fetch strategies, lazy loading, pagination, N+1 query avoidance)
• Defensive programming practices (null safety, input validation, guard clauses, failure atomicity)
• Basic knowledge of Python or AI/ML concepts
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices
