- Design, build, document, and consume RESTful APIs; ensure service contracts and versioning strategies are followed.
- Work with SQL Server and optimize queries, indexes, and data access patterns.
- Implement search and indexing solutions with Elasticsearch.
- Build event-driven integrations using Kafka (producers/consumers, topics, schema/versioning awareness).
- Use GitHub / Bitbucket and contribute to automated CI/CD pipelines (build, test, deploy).
- Write unit and integration tests; participate in code reviews and engineering best-practice adoption.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- 10+ years of experience in full-stack web application development.
- Strong backend development experience with Java and Spring Boot (REST APIs, security concepts, performance, and scalability).
- Strong front-end development experience with Angular including TypeScript, HTML5, and CSS.
- Experience using UI component libraries such as Kendo UI.
- Working knowledge of micro front-end architecture and patterns.

- Hands-on experience with SQL Server and relational data modeling.
- Experience with Elasticsearch and event streaming with Kafka.
- Proficiency with GitHub / Bitbucket workflows and practical experience with CI/CD pipelines.
- Strong communication skills, ownership mindset, and ability to work collaboratively in an agile team.
