• Integrate microservices end-to-end with frontend systems using RESTful APIs and event-driven architecture.
• Develop and maintain MySQL 8.x, PostgreSQL 15+ and Redis 7.x databases, optimizing for performance and reliability, and implement database migrations using Liquibase or Flyway.
• Create and document RESTful APIs using OpenAPI/Swagger specifications for integration with frontend applications and third-party services.

• Manage upgrades of Spring Boot, backend databases and cloud platform dependencies, maintaining zero-trust security architecture.
• Monitor and troubleshoot production issues with the operations team using observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK Stack/Splunk, Jaeger/Zipkin), participate in on-call rotations and conduct post-mortem analysis.
• Deploy microservices using CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions), containerize applications with Docker, and orchestrate with Kubernetes (deployments, services, ingress, ConfigMaps).
• Analyze system performance using monitoring tools (Micrometer, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry), implement distributed tracing, and conduct performance testing using JMeter or Gatling.

• Hands-on experience with Spring Boot 3.x, Spring Framework 6.x, Spring Cloud, Spring Data JPA, Spring Security and Spring WebFlux (reactive programming).
• Proficient in developing RESTful APIs and microservices architecture patterns (API Gateway, Service Discovery, Circuit Breaker, CQRS, Event Sourcing).
• Experience with messaging and event streaming platforms (Apache Kafka 3.x, RabbitMQ, or AWS SQS/SNS) and event-driven architecture patterns.
• Knowledge of CI/CD tools (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions), containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Helm, CloudFormation).
• Experience with MySQL 8.x, PostgreSQL 15+, or similar relational databases.
• Cloud platform experience (AWS, Azure, GCP, or Pivotal/VMware Tanzu).
• Strong understanding of microservices architecture, design principles and Domain Driven Design (DDD).
• Proficient in unit testing (JUnit 5, Mockito, AssertJ), integration testing (Testcontainers, Spring Boot Test) and Test Driven Development (TDD).
• Experience with OAuth 2.0/OpenID Connect (OIDC), JWT token handling and API security best practices.
• Familiarity with production support, observability tools, troubleshooting and incident management.
• Strong problem-solving skills, excellent communication and collaboration abilities, and a continuous learning mindset.
