Cloud & Integration Strategy:Drive AWS cloud-native solution design leveraging Infrastructure as Code (IaC), robust API management, and enterprise integration patterns.
Platform Capabilities & Reusability:Build reusable platform frameworks, SDKs, business rules engines, and shared capabilities to accelerate delivery and reduce friction across engineering units.
Operational Excellence & DevSecOps:Define and enforce standards for CI/CD pipelines, DevSecOps practices, and system observability (logging, alerting, metrics, distributed tracing).
Data & Messaging Infrastructure:Oversee scalable data modeling, complex SQL optimization, and Kafka platform administration to support high-throughput messaging and streaming.
Stakeholder Alignment:Collaborate with Product Owners, Solutions Architects, and business executives to translate business requirements into technical roadmaps and risk-mitigated delivery plans.
Qualifications Education:Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, IT, or equivalent practical experience.
Core Experience:10+ years of progressive software engineering experience, including 8+ years of hands-on Java development and 3+ years in a technical leadership/principal capacity.
Technical Stack Expertise:Backend: Advanced Java, Spring Boot (IoC, auto-configuration, custom beans), REST APIs, and microservices architecture.
Messaging & Streaming: 3+ years of hands-on experience with Apache Kafka, event-driven design, and platform administration.
Cloud: Extensive experience building AWS-native solutions (Lambda, S3, EC2, API Gateway, SNS/SQS, CloudWatch, CloudFormation).
Frontend: Hands-on development experience with Angular or modern Web application frameworks.
Data: Advanced proficiency in SQL, relational and NoSQL database modeling, and query performance tuning.
Architecture Concepts: Deep mastery of Domain-Driven Design (DDD), bounded contexts, configuration-driven patterns, and resilience engineering (circuit breakers, fault tolerance, retry logic).
DevOps & Observability: Hands-on experience with CI/CD tools (Git, Jenkins, Jira), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes/OpenShift), and monitoring suites (Datadog, Splunk, Grafana, OpenTelemetry).
Leadership & Communication: Proven track record of influencing cross-team technical decisions, mentoring senior talent, and effectively bridging business goals with technical execution.
