Job Type: Hybrid

Job Description:

We are seeking a highly skilled and passionate Senior Java Backend Developer to join our engineering team as a Senior Individual Contributor. In this role, you will be responsible for designing, building, and optimizing high-performance, robust, and scalable backend applications specialized in batch and real-time data processing.

Key Responsibilities

Systems Analysis & Architecture: Analyze complex business requirements and translate them into highly scalable, reliable, and secure backend systems designs. Evaluate trade-offs between different data architecture patterns (e.g., microservices vs. event-driven).
Hands-on Programming: Write high-quality, production-ready, and performant Java code. Leverage advanced software engineering principles such as Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), SOLID design principles, and design patterns.
Technical Project Delivery: Lead the technical implementation and delivery of critical, complex backend and data-processing initiatives. Partner with cross-functional teams to ensure successful project deployment from conception through production.
Subject Matter Expertise (SME): Act as the resident Subject Matter Expert (SME) in high-throughput data processing, stream processing, or JVM performance tuning. Provide guidance on industry best practices and emerging backend technologies.
Performance Optimization: Diagnose, profile, and resolve complex performance bottlenecks, memory leaks, and concurrency issues in high-volume distributed environments.
Quality Assurance & Best Practices: Champion code quality through Test-Driven Development (TDD), comprehensive unit/integration testing, and rigid code review standards.
Mentorship: Provide technical mentorship and architectural guidance to other engineers on the team, fostering a culture of technical excellence and clean code.

Technical Skills & Qualifications

Experience: 8+ years of professional experience in application development or systems analysis, with a heavy emphasis on Java-based backend architectures.
Core Java Mastery: Deep, expert-level understanding of Core Java (Java 11/17/21), including advanced multithreading, concurrency models, Java memory model (JVM garbage collection, heap analysis), and Collections API.
Data Processing & Streaming: Extensive hands-on experience building distributed data processing systems, ETL pipelines, and real-time streaming architectures using tools like Apache Kafka, Apache Spark, Flink, or Hadoop.
Framework Expertise: Strong experience with the Spring Ecosystem (Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, Spring Data, Spring Security) and ORM frameworks (Hibernate/JPA).
Database Management: Proficiency in designing schemas and writing optimized queries for both relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle) and NoSQL stores (e.g., Cassandra, MongoDB, Redis).
Distributed Systems: Comprehensive understanding of distributed system design patterns, consensus protocols, caching strategies, and API design (RESTful APIs, gRPC).
CI/CD & DevOps: Practical experience with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), continuous integration/continuous deployment tools (Jenkins, GitLab CI, or GitHub Actions), and infrastructure-as-code principles.
Testing: Strong advocate for testing frameworks such as JUnit, Mockito, and integration testing tools.

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), specifically managed database and container services.
Experience in financial services, banking technology, or large-scale enterprise transaction systems.
Familiarity with Unix/Linux environments, shell scripting, and network configurations.

Benefits:

TSR Consulting offers all eligible employees a comprehensive benefits package including, but not limited to major medical, HSA, dental, vision, employer-provided group life, voluntary life insurance, short-term disability, long-term disability, and 401k.
