Responsibilities

Lead the design, development, and implementation of complex middleware applications using Java and Spring Boot.
Utilize AI‑powered code generation tools (e.g., Devin, Copilot, Codex) to accelerate development, automate boilerplate code, suggest optimal implementations, and enforce architectural patterns.
Leverage AI for design‑pattern identification and complex system architecture validation.
Architect and optimize database interactions with Oracle, SQL, and MongoDB, ensuring high performance and data integrity.
Employ AI to analyze query performance, suggest advanced indexing strategies, optimize schema designs, and generate efficient SQL/NoSQL queries.
Drive adoption and continuous improvement of CI/CD pipelines to facilitate rapid and reliable software delivery.
Integrate AI into CI/CD processes for intelligent test case generation, predictive failure analysis, automated code vulnerability scanning, and optimization of pipeline execution times based on historical data.
Collaborate with cross‑functional teams—including product management, QA, and operations—to define requirements, design solutions, and deliver high‑quality software.
Use AI‑powered communication and summarization tools (e.g., Claude) to streamline requirement gathering, document analysis, and stakeholder communication.
Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior and mid‑level software engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence and continuous learning.
Leverage AI platforms for personalized learning paths, automated code feedback, and explanations of complex technical concepts.
Actively research and experiment with AI technologies to identify opportunities for enhancing developer productivity, automating tasks, and improving software quality.
Continuously explore emerging AI tools and techniques (such as Anti Gravity for complex problem‑solving) and assess their applicability to our development ecosystem.
Participate in code reviews, ensuring adherence to coding standards, best practices, and architectural guidelines.
Utilize AI‑powered code analysis tools to pre‑scan code for potential bugs, security vulnerabilities, performance bottlenecks, and style deviations.
Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues, ensuring the stability and performance of production systems.
Implement AI‑driven anomaly detection in monitoring systems, leverage AI for rapid log analysis and root cause identification, and automate incident response workflows.
Contribute to the strategic planning and technical roadmap for our middleware platforms.
Employ AI to analyze industry trends, forecast technology evolution, assess the impact of new features, and prioritize roadmap initiatives based on data‑driven insights.
Conduct tasks related to feasibility studies, time and cost estimates, IT planning, risk technology, applications development, and model development.
Utilize AI for data synthesis, predictive modeling for estimations, identification of potential ITrisks, and accelerated model prototyping and validation.
Monitor and control all phases of the development process (analysis, design, construction, testing, and implementation) and provide user and operational support.
Implement AI‑driven dashboards and reporting for real‑time project health, automated progress tracking, and proactive identification of development lifecycle bottlenecks.
Utilize in‑depth specialty knowledge of applications development to analyze complex problems/issues, provide evaluation of business process, system process, and industry standards, and make evaluative judgment.
Augment human analytical capabilities with AI‑powered data analysis and pattern recognition to rapidly assess complex scenarios and inform robust decision‑making.
Recommend and develop security measures in post‑implementation analysis of business usage to ensure successful system design and functionality.
Use AI‑driven security analysis tools to continuously monitor applications for vulnerabilities, predict potential threats, and recommend adaptive security controls.
