  • Implement security using Access Groups, Roles, ABAC/RBAC, and authentication mechanisms (SSO, OAuth, SAML)

Technical Leadership

  • Act as technical lead: conduct design reviews, code reviews, and guardrail compliance checks
  • Guide the team on performance tuning, troubleshooting, and production issue resolution
  • Define and enforce development standards, naming conventions, and reusability practices
  • Mentor and coach junior and mid-level developers

Business Analysis Support (Pega BA Exposure)

  • Participate in requirement-gathering workshops and translate business needs into user stories and Pega case life cycles
  • Assist in creating process maps, use cases, and acceptance criteria
  • Support backlog grooming, sprint planning, and stakeholder demos
  • Collaborate with Business Architects and Product Owners to refine requirements and validate solutions

Delivery & Quality

  • Work in Agile/Scrum environments and contribute to sprint planning, estimation, and retrospectives
  • Support CI/CD pipelines using Deployment Manager, Jenkins, Git, and automated testing (Pega Unit, PegaUnit/Scenario Tests)
  • Ensure quality through unit testing, code coverage, and support for SIT/UAT cycles
  • Manage application packaging, migrations, and release deployments across environments

Operations & Support

  • Troubleshoot using Tracer, Clipboard, PLA, Log files, and PDC
  • Perform performance analysis and optimization (DB tuning, agent/queue processor tuning, caching)
  • Provide L3 production support and root-cause analysis

Required Qualifications

  • 12+ years of overall IT experience, with 8+ years of hands-on Pega development
  • Pega Certified Senior System Architect (CSSA) required; Lead System Architect (CLSA) strongly preferred
  • Strong expertise in Pega Case Management, Data Pages, Decision Tables/Trees, Declarative Rules, Activities, Flows, and Flow Actions
  • Hands-on experience with Pega Constellation and/or traditional UI development
  • Proven experience with integrations (REST, SOAP, MQ, JMS) and error handling
  • Solid understanding of Pega Platform architecture, DB structure, and deployment models (on-prem, Cloud/Pega Cloud)
  • Experience with SLA, Correspondence, Reports, Background Processing (Queue Processors, Job Schedulers)
  • Working knowledge of SQL, Java, JSON, XML, and web technologies
  • Experience working in Agile/Scrum delivery models
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to interact with business and technical stakeholders

Preferred Qualifications

  • Pega Certified Business Architect (CPBA) certification, or 1 to 3 years of hands-on Pega BA experience (requirements gathering, user stories, process modeling, Pega Express/DCO)
  • Experience with Pega Customer Decision Hub, Robotic Automation, or Pega GenAI
