Team: Portals / Platform Engineering. 6+ years of experience.
This is a dual-focus senior backend role, split roughly 50/50 between AI and core platform engineering. Half the job is AI on GCP, building MCP/agent tooling in Python, shipping LLM-backed features into our portals, and driving AI-assisted dev practices across the team. The other half is Java 21 / Spring Boot 3.4, building and maintaining our production REST APIs, plus an active legacy modernization.
We need someone genuinely strong in both, not an AI specialist who'll learn Java later, or a Java engineer hoping to pick up AI on the job.
Must-haves:
• 6+ years professional software engineering experience
• Shipped a real LLM-backed product to production users, demos and POCs don't count
• Hands-on GCP + Kubernetes (Cloud Run, IAM, Secret Manager)
• Strong production Python
• Strong production Java with Spring Boot, designs, builds, tests, reviews REST services independently
• Practical fluency with AI dev tools (Claude Code, Codex, etc.), has automated real work with them
Nice to have: MCP/tool-calling experience, RAG in production, legacy Java migration experience, HCP/adtech domain exposure.
