We are seeking a highly skilled Fullstack / Backend Java Developer to join our team as a Senior Associate Consultant. The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in backend development, microservices architecture, and modern frameworks, along with a proactive approach to problem-solving and incident management. This role requires hands-on experience in building scalable, secure, and high-performing applications while collaborating with cross-functional teams.

Must Have

• 4-6 years of professional Full-stack / Backend development experience with delivering in cloud infrastructure.
• Design, develop, and maintain scalable backend services using Java and the Spring Framework.
• Integrate and manage data using MongoDB and SolR for search and storage.
• Build and manage microservices and containerized applications using Docker and Maven.

• Implement monitoring and logging solutions to ensure system reliability and performance.
• Analyze system metrics and logs to identify performance bottlenecks and optimization opportunities.
• Use data-driven insights to proactively prevent incidents and improve system health.
• Perform deep debugging of backend systems and APIs.
• Optimize code for performance, scalability, and maintainability.
• Troubleshoot production issues and provide quick resolutions.
• Own the incident lifecycle: detection, triage, impact assessment, mitigation, and service restoration within SLAs/SLOs.
• Lead incident bridges with developers, SRE/infra, and vendors (Adobe/AWS); maintain clear stakeholder communications and timelines.
• Implement hotfixes safely (feature flags, canary, rollback/runbook execution).
• Reduce MTTR via strong runbooks, escalation paths, and post‑incident reviews with actionable learnings.
• Drive root cause analysis (RCA) using 5‑Whys/Ishikawa/fault‑tree; propose and implement durable fixes (code/config/infra).
• Maintain a Known Error Database (KEDB); trend incident data to eliminate systemic issues.

Good to Have

• Strong understanding of microservices architecture and distributed systems.
• Exposure to Spacy or other NLP/AI libraries.
• Understanding of secure coding and data protection.
• Familiarity with monitoring and observability platforms (e.g., Grafana, ELK stack).
• Experience with container orchestration (Kubernetes is a plus).
• Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, LAMBDA, Azure, or GCP).
• Knowledge of Source Control (GIT), Sniffers (Charles) and project Management tools (Jira/Confluence/TFS).
• Exposure to Agile methodologies (Scrum/Kanban environments) using tools like Jira & Confluence, and DevOps practices.
