We are seeking a highly skilled Backend Developer with expertise in JVM-based development to design, build, and maintain scalable backend systems. The ideal candidate should be proficient in Java, Kotlin, and Spring Boot, with strong knowledge of microservices, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud-native application development. This role involves working in an Agile environment, integrating APIs, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver robust solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design, develop, and maintain scalable backend systems using Java/Kotlin and JVM-based technologies.

  • Implement Spring Boot, Quarkus, and microservices-based architecture.

  • Develop applications following 12-Factor App principles.

  • Work with Kafka, RabbitMQ, and other event-driven/message queue systems.

  • Manage PostgreSQL/MongoDB databases and optimize queries.

  • Leverage Git, GitHub, and GitHub Actions for version control and CI/CD.

  • Deploy applications on cloud environments (Azure/OCI/Google Cloud Platform) using Docker and Kubernetes (AKS/GKE).

  • Implement monitoring/alerting solutions with Nagios, New Relic, Splunk, or Google Cloud Platform tools.

  • Collaborate in an Agile/SCRUM environment to deliver high-quality software.

  • If needed, work with Salesforce (SFDC, SFMC, SFCC, SFSC, Shopify, Stibo).

Required Skills:

  • Strong proficiency in Java, Kotlin, JVM, OOP, and exception handling.

  • Hands-on experience with Spring Boot, Quarkus, and web technologies.

  • Experience with Apache Kafka, RabbitMQ, and microservices architecture.

  • Knowledge of 12-factor app principles.

  • Proficiency with PostgreSQL and/or MongoDB databases.

  • Hands-on with Git, GitHub, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Puppet, Chef, or ArgoCD.

  • Experience with Docker, Kubernetes (AKS/GKE).

  • Knowledge of DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, and security compliance.

  • Exposure to Salesforce (SFDC, SFMC, etc.) is a plus.

  • Familiarity with frontend basics (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) is a plus.
