  • Write production-ready code and understand the pipeline and charts that ship it.
  • Develop low-level designs for other engineers to build from, and represent the team in architecture reviews.
  • Conduct threat modeling for each feature and design authentication, authorization, and data handling from the start.

  • Identify technical gaps early, propose fixes with associated costs and benefits, and leverage AI tooling.
  • Mentor engineers, uphold standards for tests and error handling, and participate in candidate interviews.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience with Java 17+, Spring Boot, and Spring Security, including debugging JVM and Spring issues from thread dumps, heap dumps, and traces.

  • Create designs that other engineers can build from and review peer designs effectively.
  • Deploy and manage services on Kubernetes with Docker, Helm, AWS, and CI/CD while debugging failed deployments from the chart or pipeline.
