Java Dev

Responsibilities:

• Creation, management and operation of a diverse set of Dev-Ops-related tools, processes, paradigms and technologies that enable the creation and ongoing operation of the Signify IoT Platform.
• Focus on the creation of horizontal tools, technologies and best-practices that enable and support all the IoT Platform engineering teams to build, debug, test, release, manage and secure the IoT Platform’s modern, microservices-based cloud infrastructure.
• Collaborate in defining the methodologies and ways-of-working that will enable our fast-paced engineering teams to flourish as we collectively build-out the IoT Platform. You will help promote and implement best practices and supporting tools/technologies for source control management, CI and CD architectures, performance, SLAs, security, audit and monitoring that will be used by every engineer within the IoT Platform organization.
• Define common frameworks and software libraries, in various programming languages, that support the creation of efficient, scalable and highly available microservice-based architectures.
• Support with the management of the running IoT Platform system architecture. You will troubleshoot issues and identify areas for continuous improvement with a particular emphasis on quality, performance and security.
• Work closely with architects and technical product managers and other members of your team to translate overall system architecture and product requirements into well-designed, implemented and tested software solutions.
• Work in an Agile environment to deliver high-quality software in an incremental manner.
• Help promote the adoption of best-in-class software engineering practices, frameworks, and tools. You are providing guidance and feedback to other software developers.

Experience:

• B.Sc. in Computer Science or related Engineering is required, a Master’s degree is desirable
• 8+ years of proven, hands-on track-record as a software engineer, focused on cloud-based systems
• Mastery of a variety of programming languages – at least Java, Python, but knowledge of Golang or JavaScript (NodeJS) are desirable. You must have strong Java Development skills, preferably with Ver. 1.8
• Proven track record developing cloud-based services (SaaS) and platforms (PaaS)
• Proven hands-on in-depth experience of AWS is required, both in terms of traditional technologies (e.g. EC2, S3, DynamoDB, RDS, …) as well as more recent cutting-edge paradigms (e.g. Lambda, API Gateway, Fargate, …).
• Proven experience of developing microservices and complex microservice-based platform architectures
• Excellent understanding of distributed systems, designing for scalability, performance and availability
• Experience of establishing non-functional best-practices and deploying supporting technologies for improving platform security (including audit) and reliability (latency, availability, scalability)
• Knowledge of distributed network architectures and network security is required
• Good knowledge of data persistence technologies including relational databases and no-SQL solutions
• Excellent interpersonal and technical communication with peers, and non-peers alike, with a can-do attitude
• 3+ years in teams applying modern agile software development practices #LI-FM
