About the Role
We're seeking a Senior Java Developer with 5+ years' experience to build high-performing, scalable enterprise portal backends, APIs, and modern React frontends. You'll develop modular services, cloud-native integrations, and headless APIs for robust, production-ready portal applications.
Key Responsibilities
-
Develop modular Java backend services (OSGi modules, Service Builder equivalents) and RESTful/GraphQL headless APIs for enterprise portals.
-
Build responsive React frontends with client extensions consuming portal APIs and state management (Redux/Zustand).
-
Design and optimize Postgres/MySQL databases with advanced entity-service mappings and SQL performance tuning.
-
Implement event-driven integrations using message brokers (RabbitMQ, Kafka, Azure Service Bus) for cross-module communication.
-
Deploy containerized portal applications with Docker/Kubernetes on Azure, ensuring high availability.
-
Optimize performance with distributed caching (Redis, Hazelcast), low-latency APIs, and frontend bundle optimization.
-
Collaborate across full SDLC: API contracts, modular development, frontend integration, deployment, and monitoring.
-
Implement full-stack observability with Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog across backend services and frontend.
-
Implement DevSecOps with automated security scanning, CI/CD pipelines for modular deployments.
Must-Have Skills
-
Backend/Portal: Java 17+, Spring Boot, enterprise portal frameworks (OSGi modules, Service Builder, modular service layers); REST/GraphQL headless APIs.
-
Frontend: React 18+, TypeScript, hooks, component libraries (Material-UI), portal client extensions/API integration.
-
Architecture: Microservices/modular monoliths, design patterns (CQRS, Event Sourcing, repository patterns).
-
Agentic Coding: Proficiency with agentic AI coding assistants for rapid prototyping, refactoring complex OSGi modules, and generating tests across full-stack components.
-
DevOps/CI-CD: Docker, Kubernetes (Helm charts), Jenkins/GitHub Actions, multi-module pipelines.
-
Cloud: Azure (2+ years hands-on).
-
Databases: Postgres/MySQL, JPA/Hibernate, advanced SQL, entity-service mappings.
-
Testing: JUnit/Mockito (backend), Jest/React Testing Library (frontend), integration testing.
-
Tools: Git, Gradle/Maven (multi-module), npm/yarn.
-
Full SDLC experience; OWASP security for enterprise applications.
Nice-to-Have Skills
-
Kafka streaming, Next.js for portal frontends.
-
Infrastructure as Code (Terraform for portal deployments).
-
Advanced monitoring: Datadog, Splunk.
-
Domain-Driven Design, legacy system integration (.NET/mainframes).
-
Portal-specific patterns: content management, user personalization, workflow engines.
Preferred Qualifications
-
Bachelor's/Master’s in computer science.
-
Cloud/Java certifications.
