• Participate in structured peer code reviews, focusing on Java codebase excellence and shared learning.
• Implement performance optimizations including caching (Redis), efficient asset management, and lazy rendering.
• Ensure unit tests and integration tests are included for all features, with a minimum of 70% test coverage.

UX & Digital Craft

• Translate UX/UI designs into elegant, animated user experiences leveraging motion libraries (Framer Motion, GSAP).
• Support design consistency and thoughtful user interactions throughout the interface, using Storybook and atomic design patterns.
• Work closely with design teams to create visually compelling and interactive digital solutions.

Systems & Integration Engineering

• Develop and consume RESTful APIs and integrate with microservices architecture, primarily using Java and Spring Boot.
• Implement asynchronous data processing and queue management (e.g., RabbitMQ, Kafka, Horizon, etc.).
• Fulfill DevOps requirements to manage cloud deployments across AWS, Azure, or GCP, including CI/CD integration.

Innovation & Learning

• Explore new technologies and bring forward ideas to improve the Java development workflow and platform capabilities.
• Participate in technical spikes, PoCs, and company-wide learning initiatives.
• Contribute to internal Java libraries and shared engineering tooling.

Agile Collaboration

• Work in Agile squads alongside UX, strategy, data, and delivery teams.
• Actively participate in sprint planning, estimation, retrospectives, and daily stand-ups.
• Maintain strong communication and accountability within a remote-first team.

Qualifications

• 3–6 years of hands-on full stack development experience with a strong focus on Java in an agency or product environment.
• Advanced proficiency in Java (Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, JPA/Hibernate).
• Experienced in front-end development using React and strong skills with HTML, SCSS/CSS.
• Experienced with RESTful API design and implementation, and message queueing (Kafka, RabbitMQ, Horizon).
• Skilled in Git workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud deployments on AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Competent in caching strategies (e.g., Redis) and developing scalable, distributed applications.
• Experience with animation/motion libraries (Framer Motion, GSAP) is a plus.
• Strong understanding of Agile methodologies and collaborative team delivery.
• Excellent communication and problem-solving skills; able to articulate technical ideas clearly.
• Holds a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science (or equivalent practical experience).
• Proven track record of successful Java/Spring Boot/React projects, with a robust portfolio.
