Senior Java Developer

As a Senior Java Developer, your role involves designing, developing, and maintaining complex software applications using Java technologies. You will be responsible for playing a leadership role in the development process and mentoring junior developers. Your key responsibilities include: - **Software Development**: Design, develop, test, and deploy high-quality Java-based applications, ensuring they meet functional and technical requirements. - **System Architecture**: Contribute to and design the system architecture, making high-level decisions about technology choices, design patterns, and frameworks to ensure scalability, maintainability, and performance. - **Code Review & Mentorship**: Review code written by other developers to ensure code quality, adherence to standards, and best practices. Provide mentorship and guidance to junior or mid-level developers. - **Performance Optimization**: Identify and resolve performance issues, such as memory leaks or slow response times, and ensure applications are running efficiently. - **Troubleshooting & Debugging**: Diagnose and resolve complex production issues, bugs, and performance bottlenecks, both independently and as part of a team. - **Collaboration**: Work closely with other teams (like product, quality assurance, and UI/UX teams) to ensure the final product meets user needs and technical requirements. - **Database Design & Management**: Design and optimize database schemas, write efficient SQL queries, and ensure seamless integration between Java applications and databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, etc.). - **Testing & Quality Assurance**: Develop and execute unit tests, integration tests, and other automated tests to ensure software quality. Maintain test coverage and continuously improve testing practices. - **Version Control**: Manage and maintain code using version control systems like Git, ensuring proper branching, merging, and versioning. - **Documentation**: Create and maintain detailed technical documentation, including design documents, API documentation, and system architecture. - **Agile Development**: Participate in agile development cycles (Scrum or Kanban), attending stand-ups, sprint planning, and retrospective meetings. Contribute to sprint goals and deliverables. - **Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD)**: Implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines for automated build, testing, and deployment processes to ensure the efficient and reliable delivery of software. - **Research & Innovation**: Stay up to date with the latest Java technologies, frameworks, and industry trends, and explore new tools and technologies to improve the development process. - **Security**: Ensure that the software adheres to security best practices, including secure coding practices, data encryption, and vulnerability management. This role requires you to have a strong understanding of Java technologies, system architecture, database design, testing practices, version control, agile methodologies, CI/CD processes, and security best practices. Additionally, you should be proactive in staying updated with the latest industry trends and continuously improving your skills to drive innovation in software development.,
