  • Profile performance, tune the JVM, and debug complex production issues.
  • Develop and maintain automated test suites and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Participate in code reviews, architecture discussions, and technical audits to uphold code quality standards.

  • Comfortable using AI-powered development tools to improve code quality and speed.
  • Strong testing discipline, including TDD, benchmarking, and resilience testing.
