- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines and automation (Maven builds, GitHub workflows, Jenkins jobs, artifact publishing to Nexus).
- Integrate with communication platforms including SMS providers (Syniverse/Twilio), email delivery platforms (SparkPost), and security integrations (Proofpoint/DMARC).
- Collaborate with multi-functional teams to develop clear user documentation and communicate status, risks, and build decisions.
- Fix and support applications across multiple runtime environments and deployment platforms.
- Mentor team members and contribute to continuous improvement of development practices and architecture standards.
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years of extensive hands-on Java development experience, including JDK 11 and/or JDK 17 (beyond Java 8), with strong object-oriented design and coding skills.
- Experience building and integrating APIs and services using REST, SOAP/Web Services, SOA, XML, and JSON data formats.
- Advanced XML transformation experience with XSLT programming skills.
- 4+ years of experience in Node.js development experience with working knowledge of JavaScript and related technologies.
- Knowledge of distributed systems concepts including multi-tier architecture, algorithms, and messaging/queuing patterns.
- Proven capability in using CI/CD tooling (Maven, GitHub, Jenkins, Nexus or equivalent) along with applied Unix/Linux command knowledge for production troubleshooting.
- Experience with application servers (Apache Tomcat) and containerization platforms (Docker and OpenShift).
- Demonstrated ability to work across multiple databases including relational (Postgres, SQL Server) and NoSQL solutions.
- Experience integrating with SMS and email communication platforms, including delivery callbacks, templates, compliance, and security protocols.
- Strong communication and collaboration skills with ability to document technical decisions and manage cross-functional projects.
Preferred Qualifications
