Responsibilities

  • Write production-quality code for critical pricing platform capabilities, complex integrations, and technically challenging initiatives.
  • Define and own end-to-end technical architecture, design documents, APIs, data models, workflows, and operational readiness plans.
  • Build scalable Java- or Kotlin-based microservices using event-driven architecture, Kafka, API-first principles, and cloud infrastructure.
  • Design pricing recommendations, rule evaluation, approvals, simulations, publishing, execution, auditability, and downstream integrations.
  • Own persistence and data-modeling strategies across relational, NoSQL, and analytical data stores.
  • Design resilient distributed workflows using orchestration, outbox, retries, circuit breaking, idempotency, and dead-letter processing patterns.
  • Define REST and gRPC APIs with versioning, backward compatibility, and contract testing strategies.
  • Drive multi-market and multi-tenant architecture while balancing global consistency with market-specific requirements.
  • Identify systemic risks and improve scalability, reliability, security, data integrity, observability, and technical debt.
  • Build and improve CI/CD pipelines supporting automated testing, security validation, canary deployment, rollback, and production verification.
