Java Programmer jobs in United Arab Emirates

We are seeking a highly skilled Software Architect with extensive hands‑on experience and a proven track record in designing highly scalable systems in cloud environments, preferably AWS. The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of cloud technologies, architecture principles, best practices, application security, client‑server aspects, RESTful API design, and message queue systems. While experience with End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) is welcome, it is not mandatory for this role.

• Architect and design highly scalable, reliable, and secure cloud‑based software solutions, with a focus on AWS services.
• Collaborate closely with cross‑functional teams including product managers, engineers, and stakeholders to understand business requirements and translate them into technical specifications and system designs.
• Lead the implementation of architectural solutions, providing hands‑on expertise and guidance to development teams throughout the entire software development lifecycle.
• Conduct technical evaluations and assessments of existing systems, identifying areas for improvement and proposing innovative solutions to enhance scalability, performance, security, RESTful API design, and message queue integration.
• Define and enforce architectural standards, best practices, and coding guidelines to ensure consistency and maintainability across projects.
• Stay abreast of emerging technologies, trends, and industry best practices in cloud computing, software architecture, application security, client‑server communication, RESTful API design, message queue systems, and evaluate their potential impact on our architecture and technical stack.
• Mentor and coach junior members of the team, fostering a culture of continuous l earning and technical excellence.
• Collaborate with security teams to ensure that the architectural designs meet the required security and compliance standards, and incorporate appropriate security measures, including encryption, access controls, and application security.
• Design and implement secure client‑server communication protocols and mechanisms, ensuring data confidentiality, integrity, authentication, and RESTful API security best practices.
• Integrate message queue systems into the architecture to enable asynchronous communication between microservices and improve system scalability, reliability, and performance.
• Drive architectural decisions and provide technical leadership in resolving complex technical challenges and issues related to application security, client‑server communication, RESTful API design, and message queue integration.

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
• Proven experience as a Software Architect, with a focus on designing highly scalable and reliable systems in cloud environments, preferably AWS.
• Hands‑on experience with a wide range of AWS services such as EC2, S3, Lambda, RDS, DynamoDB, ECS, EKS, etc.
• Strong understanding of cloud architecture principles, microservices architecture, distributed systems, and containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
• Proficiency in designing and implementing RESTful APIs and microservices‑based architectures, including API versioning, authentication, authorization, and documentation.
• Experience with message queue systems such as Amazon SQS, Amazon SNS, Kafka, RabbitMQ, etc.
• Experience with Agile development methodologies and DevOps practices, including CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code (IaC), and automated deployment.
• Solid understanding of application security principles, common vulnerabilities, and best practices for secure software development.
• Experience in designing and implementing secure client‑server communication protocols and mechanisms.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and the ability to think strategically while paying attention to detail.
• Experience with End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) is a plus, but not mandatory.
