Java Developer (3–4 Years) | Pune | Immediate Joiner

About the Role

We are looking for a highly skilled and experienced Java Developer with 3–4 years of strong, hands-on backend development experience in building scalable, production-grade applications. This is not an entry-level or training-focused role. We are seeking someone who has already worked extensively with Core Java, Spring Boot, RESTful APIs, database design, and performance optimization.

The ideal candidate must demonstrate ownership, problem-solving ability, and system-level thinking, and be comfortable working in a fast-paced, product-driven environment. This role is 100% on-site at our Pune office, and candidates must be willing to commute or relocate as required. Immediate joiners or candidates with a short notice period will be preferred.

Key Responsibilities

Backend Development & Application Design

• Design, develop, and maintain robust, scalable backend applications using Java and Spring Boot.
• Independently own and deliver end-to-end backend modules, from requirement analysis to deployment.

• Apply strong understanding of OOP principles, design patterns, and clean coding standards.

Database Design & Data Handling

• Ensure data integrity, consistency, and performance optimization.

Performance Optimization & Troubleshooting

• Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, memory leaks, and concurrency issues.
• Analyze and fix production issues with proper root-cause analysis.
• Improve application performance through code optimization and JVM-level understanding.

Collaboration & System Integration

• Work closely with product, QA, and DevOps teams to deliver high-quality releases.
• Participate in technical and architectural discussions and provide implementation inputs.
• Review code, enforce best practices, and support junior team members when required.

Quality, Best Practices & Ownership

• Write unit and integration tests to ensure application stability and quality.
• Follow best practices for Git version control, branching, and documentation.
• Take complete ownership of assigned deliverables with accountability and quality focus.

Required Skills

• 3–4 years of strong, hands-on experience in Java development (mandatory).
• Expert knowledge of Core Java, OOP, collections, multithreading, and concurrency.
• Strong experience with Spring Boot, Spring MVC, and dependency injection.
• Hands-on experience building REST APIs and backend services.
• Solid experience with Hibernate / JPA and relational databases (MySQL / PostgreSQL / Oracle).
• Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to work independently and own modules end-to-end.

Nice to Have

• Experience with microservices architecture.
