Role Overview

As a Java Technology Lead, you will architect, design, and guide the development of high-volume, distributed, event-driven microservices application. You will lead engineering initiatives that power our platform’s reliability, scalability, resiliency, and compliance capabilities, working closely with product and operations to deliver secure, reliable, and compliant solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect & Design highly scalable, event-driven microservices applications.

• Lead Technical Delivery — own end-to-end system design, from proof-of-concept to production.

• Drive Cloud-Native Adoption — leverage containerization, orchestration, and cloud services (AWS/Azure).

• Implement Observability — design logging, monitoring, and tracing solutions (e.g., ELK, Datadog, OpenTelemetry).

• Optimize Data Storage — design, utilize and manage SQL/NoSQL databases and caches.

• Mentor Engineers — foster technical excellence, guide architectural decisions, and lead by example.

• Collaborate Cross-Functionally — partner with product, compliance, and infrastructure teams to align on business goals.

Required Skills & Experience

• 8+ years of professional software development experience, with 2+ years in a technical leadership role.

• Proven track record in building distributed, event-driven, microservices-based applications in Java and Spring.

• Expertise in designing, implementing event-driven architectures using message streaming platforms like Kafka, RabbitMQ, etc.

• Strong understanding of cloud platforms (AWS) and cloud-native architectures.

• Drive application containerization and hosting applications in container orchestrators like Kubernetes.

• Experience leveraging API Gateway solutions, like Kong, for secure and efficient API management.

• Hands-on with SQL/NoSQL databases (Postgres/Oracle, MongoDB/Cassandra, Redis, or similar).

• Experience implementing workflow engines like Temporal, Camunda, etc.

• Strong expertise in Domain-Driven Design (DDD) for large-scale, complex systems.

• Strong problem-solving skills and ability to make trade-offs in architecture and design.

• Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain complex technical topics to diverse audiences.

Good to Have

• Experience in the healthcare domain.

• Expertise in observability tools and concepts — metrics, logs, traces, dashboards.

• Experience using EIP and OMS APIs like TIBCO and MuleSoft respectively.
