• Deep Java experience (Spring), architectural patterns for scalable, observable, testable systems; strong API design.
• Strong DevOps practices: CI/CD (GitLab), automated testing (JUnit/Spock), code reviews, telemetry/observability (Splunk, AppDynamics), containers (Docker), and cloud environments.
• Hands‑on AI development using modern tools (e.g., Windsurf) and experience integrating AI into product workflows.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder influence; ability to simplify complexity, make evidence‑based decisions and drive continuous improvement.
• Corporate Actions domain experience is strongly preferred.
