- Build and maintain robust observability practices—logs, metrics, traces, dashboards, and alerts—leveraging tools such as ELK, Loki, ElastAlert, and Grafana.
- Apply secure‑by‑design principles and ensure adherence to industry and regulatory standards for banking systems.
- Mentor junior and mid‑level engineers through technical coaching, guidance, and domain leadership.
- Lead incident response activities, perform root‑cause analysis, and drive continuous improvement in system reliability.
- Contribute reusable patterns, reference implementations, and documentation to accelerate internal development.
- Continuously improve platform reliability, performance, developer velocity, and customer experience.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, or a related field—or equivalent practical experience.
- 4–6 years of professional software engineering experience with a track record of delivering impact at scale.
- Strong expertise in Java/J2EE, algorithms, data structures, and design patterns, with excellent hands‑on coding skills.
- Experience with observability tooling such as Kibana, Loki, and Grafana, and proficiency with CI/CD pipelines.
- Strong communication and collaboration abilities, including skill in presenting technical concepts to non‑technical stakeholders.
- Ability to stay calm and effective under pressure during incident response.
- Demonstrated experience mentoring engineers and driving continuous team improvement.
- Experience with event‑driven architectures, messaging technologies (e.g., MQ), and streaming platforms (e.g., Kafka).
Nice to Have
