• Exposure to Java 17+ or ongoing Java modernization efforts
• Familiarity with AI‑assisted development tools (e.g., Copilot, Claude, or similar)
• Experience in high‑scale SaaS or enterprise platforms
• Background in scheduling, workforce management, or analytics systems (assumption)

What You Will Be Doing

• Maintain and enhance a large-scale Java‑based platform
• Contribute to ongoing upgrades to modern Java versions
• Collaborate on introducing AI tools and workflows into development processes
• Help design and iterate on AI agents that support engineering tasks
• Partner with cross‑functional teams on product and system improvements
