To be successful in this role, you should meet the following requirements:

• Extensive experience building Java applications, including test-driven development, architecture, and design patterns.
• In-depth knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and Groovy.
• Understanding of ITIL and agile concepts, with experience operating services in compliance with IT controls.
