• Deploy and manage applications on cloud platforms using CI/CD pipelines and containerization technologies
• Bridge the gap between front-end and back-end developers, facilitating communication and ensuring cohesive integration of all system components
• Draft precise technical specs for AI agents (e.g., Kiro) to generate boilerplate code (Angular services, Spring Boot controllers), test cases (Karma, JUnit) or Oracle PL/SQL scripts
• Review and refine AI outputs for correctness (logic, edge cases), compliance (security, coding standards) and performance
• Document AI contributions (e.g., code comments, ADRs) and train teams on prompt engineering

Requirements

• University degree corresponding to Level 7 of the European Qualifications Framework (which typically corresponds to a master’s level or 5 years of higher education), and minimum 5 years of IT professional experience
• Very good knowledge of English, both spoken and written, corresponding to Level B2
• Expertise in Java 8/17 and back-end stacks (Java/Node/PHP), including JEE (EJB 3, CDI, JMS), Spring Boot, and Hibernate JPA.

• Understanding of containerization and orchestration technologies (Docker, Kubernetes) for application deployment
• Deep knowledge of authentication and authorization protocols and standards (e.g., OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, JWT)
• Proven experience working within Agile methodologies and using JIRA for task and project management
• Ability to write clear, structured technical specifications for AI code agents (e.g., Kiro, GitHub Copilot)
• Awareness of AI limitations (e.g., hallucinations, bias, licensing risks) and mitigation strategies
• Experience integrating AI tools into software development workflows (e.g., coding, PR reviews, documentation, CI/CD)
