Your Opportunity
We are seeking a Software Engineer to design, build, and operate high-throughput, low-latency, mission-critical platforms. This role focuses on Java-based API development, cloud-native deployments (GCP or equivalent), modern access management protocols, and AI-assisted software development.
You will own services with strict reliability, performance, and availability SLAs, operating at scale in a security-sensitive environment.
What you have
Key Responsibilities
Core Engineering
- Design, develop, and maintain high-performance Java services supporting REST-based APIs.
- Build cloud-native, horizontally scalable services deployed on GCP and/or other public cloud platforms.
- Develop and secure APIs using OIDC, OAuth 2.0, and SAML-based authentication and authorization flows.
- Implement API-first designs with strong contract discipline, backward compatibility, and understandability.
Scale, Performance & Reliability
- Build and operate highly resilient systems with:
- API latency SLA < 50ms
- Throughput > 5,000 TPS
- Availability ≥ 99.9%
- Error budget < 0.1%
- Design for fault tolerance, graceful degradation, and fast recovery.
- Apply resilience patterns such as timeouts, retries, circuit breakers, bulkheads, and rate limiting.
- Participate in production support, incident response, RCA, and continuous reliability improvement.
Cloud & Deployment
- Use CI/CD pipelines for automated build, test, and deployment.
- Own build → deploy → run lifecycle, including monitoring, alerting, and capacity planning.
- Work with containerized workloads and modern deployment strategies (blue/green, canary, feature flags).
AI-Enabled Development
- Actively use AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Copilot in agentic mode) to:
- Accelerate feature development
- Improve code quality and test coverage
- Assist with refactoring, documentation, and troubleshooting
- Champion responsible and effective AI usage as part of daily engineering workflows.
Collaboration
- Partner with platform, security, SRE, and product teams to deliver end-to-end solutions.
- Contribute to architecture reviews, design discussions, and technical decision-making.
Required Qualifications
- 4+ years Strong Java expertise with experience building production-grade services.
- 2+ years Hands-on API development experience, including RESTful services and API security.
- Cloud deployment experience on GCP and/or equivalent cloud platforms.
- 2+ Solid experience with Access Management protocols:
- OAuth 2.0
- OpenID Connect (OIDC)
- SAML
- Proven experience building and operating high-criticality systems with strict SLAs.
- Strong understanding of distributed systems, concurrency, and performance optimization and resiliency.
- Experience with observability (metrics, logs, traces) and production troubleshooting.
