Java architect
what you'll do
architecture ownership for modern java platforms (java 17/21, spring boot, spring cloud preferred).
Design and evolution of distributed, event-driven systems (messaging, sagas, resiliency, eventual consistency).
Legacy modernization strategy execution (monolith → modular/microservices via safe, incremental migration).
Performance and scalability engineering (profiling, tuning, latency/throughput optimization, load testing).
Ai-first engineering (scale what’s already working):
strengthen and standardize existing ai-assisted delivery across teams (coding, review, test creation, analysis)
embed ai into modernization workflows to reduce cycle time, defects, and technical debt
accelerate quality and operations through ai-enabled automation (impact analysis, regression optimization, faster rca)
improve observability using ai-supported insights (signal detection, log/trace summarization, incident learning loops).
Cloud architecture on azure (preferred) with strong reliability, security, and cost discipline.
Engineering guardrails: architecture patterns, reference designs, quality gates, and secure-by-design principles.
Qualifications (must-have):
12 years of engineering experience, including 3 years of true architecture ownership
proven production experience building distributed, event-driven systems
deep expertise in java (modern java, concurrency, memory/performance fundamentals)
strong ai ado
