Qualifikationen

• 10+ years of experience leading technologists to manage and solve complex technical items within your domain of expertise, including hands-on Java development and distributed system design.
• Deep expertise in Java, including modern frameworks (Spring Boot, etc.), concurrency, and performance tuning for large-scale, cloud-native applications.
• Proven experience architecting, building, and operating distributed systems on AWS, leveraging services such as ECS/EKS, Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, and API Gateway.
• Experience leading teams of technologists, guiding them through technical challenges in cloud-native and distributed environments.
• Experience with hiring, developing, and recognizing talent, with a focus on fostering technical excellence and innovation.
• In-depth knowledge of the services industry and their IT systems, with practical experience in cloud migration and modernization.
• Proven experience building and operating self-service systems at large scale (e.g., automated provisioning, golden paths, developer enablement).
• Deep experience implementing and governing RBAC/ABAC authorization models at enterprise scale, including role engineering, attribute policy design, and entitlement management.
• Extensive experience with semantic modeling and translating those models into operational data stores; hands-on experience with graph-oriented data modeling and graph databases.
• Enterprise architecture experience with a strong engineering focus, specifically in platform and service delivery (roadmaps, modernization, migration patterns, and operationalization), including distributed system design and cloud-native architecture.
• Strong understanding of how semantic models and ABAC combine to enable dynamic self-service journeys across many services—including attribute sourcing, policy decisioning, and runtime enforcement integrated with APIs, gateways, and workflow engines.

Aufgaben

• Provide overall direction, oversight, and coaching for a team of entry-level to mid-level software engineers, including hands-on guidance in Java development and best practices for building robust, scalable applications.
• Lead the design, development, and deployment of cloud-native, heavily distributed systems and solutions on AWS, ensuring high availability, scalability, and resilience.
• Be accountable for decisions that influence teams’ resources, budget, tactical operations, and the execution and implementation of processes and procedures, with a focus on optimizing cloud infrastructure and distributed architectures.
• Ensure successful collaboration across teams and stakeholders, fostering alignment on technical design, cloud adoption, and distributed system integration.
• Provide input to leadership regarding budget, approach, and technical considerations to improve operational efficiencies and functionality for the team, including cloud cost optimization and architectural trade-offs.
• Guide and coach teams on approach to achieve goals aligned against a set of strategic initiatives, including adoption of cloud-native patterns and DevOps practices.
• Drive the strategy and delivery of self-service platforms and capabilities at scale (e.g., developer portals, automated environment provisioning, and pave-the-path guardrails) to improve engineering productivity and reduce lead time to value.
• Define, implement, and govern enterprise-grade authorization models using RBAC and ABAC in partnership with Cyber and IAM, enforcing least privilege and policy consistency across platforms and services.
• Establish and evolve semantic domain models and corresponding data architectures; apply graph database patterns where appropriate to enable relationship-centric capabilities and discovery.
• Architect self-service journeys powered by semantic models and ABAC—dynamically routing, assembling, and authorizing capabilities across diverse services and channels to reduce friction and speed time to value.
• Apply orchestration and choreography patterns that leverage semantic context and attributes; design for observability, idempotency, compensation, and graceful degradation to ensure resilient, high-trust experiences end to end, with a strong emphasis on distributed system reliability and cloud-native monitoring.
