Remote work

Job summary

yGen Innovations is building software engineers to support an active client engagement centered on an internal AI agent platform. If you have a solid grasp of Spring Boot, Java, and REST APIs, and you know how to work with AI coding assistants without trusting them blindly, we want to hear from you.

Remote work from the Philippines; duties include extending a live Java/React codebase, adding endpoints, and ensuring reliable migrations with Flyway and PostgreSQL.

Qualifications

• Solid grounding in Spring Boot: what a controller, a service, and a repository each do, and how a request travels from an HTTP endpoint to the database and back.
• Comfortable reading and writing modern Java
• Experience designing and consuming REST APIs, including request and response shapes and status codes
• Working SQL skills: reading a schema, writing queries, and understanding what a foreign key and an index are for
• Git fundamentals: branches, pull requests, reading a diff, and commit messages that explain why

Responsibilities

• Extending a live Java and React codebase that other teams depend on daily
• Adding endpoints and screens to an internal AI agent platform built on a flow engine of nodes and conditional branches
• Fixing defects reported by the internal teams using the platform
• Writing and reviewing versioned database migrations with Flyway and PostgreSQL
• Making platform behavior visible to the engineers who operate it, including inputs, outputs, model, duration, and cost at each step
• Using AI coding assistants to build changes, then verifying every output by running it and checking it against the actual code rather than trusting a confident summary
• Writing and maintaining agent skills: packaged, reusable instructions that give an AI agent a reliable way to perform a specific task
• Writing spec documents covering requirements, design, and acceptance criteria that another engineer or an agent can build from
