ROLE_DESCRIPTION -

Position Overview
We are seeking an experienced AWS Full Stack Developer to design, build, and support secure, scalable, cloud-native applications. The role requires strong hands-on expertise in Java and Spring Boot backend development, modern web development using JavaScript/TypeScript and the Lit library, and deployment of distributed applications on AWS.
The developer will work across frontend, API, microservices, data, and cloud layers, while integrating digital experiences with Adobe Experience Manager (AEM). The ideal candidate can independently translate requirements into production-ready solutions and collaborate effectively with architecture, UX, DevOps, content, security, and product teams.
Key Responsibilities
Design, develop, test, and maintain end-to-end web applications using Java, Spring Boot, JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, CSS, and Lit-based web components.
Build reusable, accessible, responsive, and standards-based UI components using Lit and native Web Components.
Design and implement secure REST and event-driven APIs and integrate applications with enterprise and third-party systems.
Develop cloud-native services on AWS using appropriate compute, storage, database, integration, security, and observability services.
Create and support microservices deployed through containers and serverless patterns, based on solution needs.
Integrate frontend applications and APIs with AEM-managed content, assets, components, and headless content services.
Collaborate with AEM teams on Content Fragments, Experience Fragments, JSON/GraphQL delivery, client libraries, and component integration.
Implement authentication, authorization, secure coding, secrets management, encryption, logging, monitoring, and auditability.
Create automated unit, integration, API, UI, accessibility, and performance tests and resolve defects across the stack.
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code for repeatable deployments across environments.
Monitor application health, troubleshoot production issues, perform root-cause analysis, and improve reliability and performance.
Participate in solution design, code reviews, Agile ceremonies, technical documentation, estimation, and release planning.
Use AI-assisted development tools responsibly to accelerate coding, testing, documentation, and developer productivity.
Required Skills
8 years of software engineering experience with strong hands-on full stack development capabilities.
Strong Java experience with Spring Boot, Spring MVC, dependency injection, data access, validation, exception handling, and API development.
Advanced JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3, responsive design, browser APIs, package management, and modern build tooling.
Hands-on experience building reusable custom elements and Web Components using Lit, including properties, events, templating, styling, lifecycle methods, and component testing.
Experience designing RESTful APIs and integrating synchronous and asynchronous services using JSON and standard API security practices.
Hands-on AWS development experience with services such as Lambda, ECS or EKS, EC2, API Gateway, S3, CloudFront, RDS or DynamoDB, SQS or SNS, IAM, Secrets Manager, CloudWatch, and related services.
Experience with Docker, container orchestration, serverless architectures, and cloud-native application design patterns.
Experience with relational and NoSQL databases, data modeling, query optimization, transactions, and database migration practices.
Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines using tools such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, AWS CodePipeline, or comparable platforms.
Experience using infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, or AWS CDK.
Knowledge of automated testing frameworks for backend, API, and frontend layers, including unit, integration, and end-to-end testing.
Strong understanding of application security, OAuth 2.0/OpenID Connect, JWT, role-based access control, OWASP practices, and secure cloud configuration.
Experience with observability using structured logging, metrics, dashboards, alerts, distributed tracing, and AWS CloudWatch.
Working knowledge of Git-based development, pull requests, branching strategies, code reviews, and Agile delivery.
AEM Knowledge
Working knowledge of Adobe Experience Manager, preferably AEM as a Cloud Service, and how custom applications consume or integrate with AEM-managed experiences.
Understanding of AEM Sites, Assets/DAM, templates, components, client libraries, author/publish environments, Dispatcher/CDN concepts, and caching considerations.
Experience integrating applications with AEM through REST, GraphQL, Content Fragments, Experience Fragments, or other headless content patterns.
Ability to collaborate with AEM developers on HTL/Sightly, Sling Models, OSGi services, component contracts, and frontend integration boundaries.
Awareness of AEM Cloud Manager pipelines and deployment considerations is desirable.
Preferred Skills
AWS Developer Associate, AWS Solutions Architect Associate, or relevant professional-level AWS certification.
Experience delivering applications in financial services or another highly regulated enterprise environment.
Knowledge of accessibility standards, including WCAG and accessible Web Component design.
Experience with GraphQL, Kafka or other event-streaming platforms, OpenTelemetry, and API contract-first development.
Exposure to Adobe Experience Cloud products such as Adobe Analytics, Adobe Target, Adobe Experience Platform, or Adobe Tags/Web SDK.
Experience with performance engineering, CDN and caching strategies, resilience patterns, disaster recovery, and cost optimization.
Familiarity with AI coding assistants such as GitHub Copilot, Claude, or ChatGPT for development acceleration.
