  • Automation & Scalability: Engineer robust solutions and automated CI/CD pipelines to streamline code deployments

  • Operational Excellence: Drive system reliability by leading incident management, defining technical requirements, and monitoring key performance metrics to ensure platform health.

  • High-Volume Support: Provide dedicated support for our shared Kafka Platform and its related API services, proactive troubleshooting, and rapid production issue resolution.

  • Security & Cloud Infrastructure: Code with spring-security and deploy cloud-native deployments on Openshift, implementing enterprise-grade security standards (mTLS, JWT, and KMS)

  • Core Technical Leadership: Utilize your expertise in Java, Kafka, Kubernetes, and observability tools like Datadog to build, secure, and optimize our platform

Basic Qualifications: 

  • Bachelor’s Degree

  • At least 3+ years of experience in software engineering (Internship experience does not apply)

  • 3+ years of experience with enterprise messaging and event-streaming platforms, including Apache Kafka and IBM WebSphere MQ

  • 3+ years of experience implementing and managing CI/CD tools and deployment pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions)

  • 2+ years of experience with AWS, GCP, Azure, or another cloud service

  • 2+ years of experience in Agile practices (Scrum or Kanban)

  • Experience leveraging interactive AI tooling to accelerate productivity, utilizing capabilities beyond basic code completion
