Hiring Type : Full Time

Description :

We are seeking a Full Stack Developer to join our dynamic engineering team. In this role, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining high-quality web applications using a combination of Java / Spring Boot on the backend and Angular on the frontend. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver innovative and user-centric solutions.

Responsibilities :

• Designing and developing backend microservices using Java and Spring Boot.
• Creating and maintaining RESTful APIs for various functionalities.
• Building and integrating frontend components using Angular to consume backend APIs.

Key Skills and Technologies :

Backend (70-80%) :

Java : This is the core language. You'll likely be working with frameworks like Spring Boot to build robust and scalable applications.

Microservices Architecture : Understanding how to design, develop, and deploy independent, loosely coupled services is crucial. This includes concepts like inter-service communication, service discovery, and fault tolerance.

REST APIs : You'll be responsible for designing and implementing well-structured and efficient RESTful APIs for communication between the frontend, other microservices, and external systems. This involves understanding HTTP methods, status codes, and data formats (like JSON).

Frontend (30-20%) :

Angular : Proficiency in Angular (TypeScript, components, services, routing, state management) is essential for building the user interface.

Good to Have :

Kafka : Experience with Kafka (a distributed streaming platform) suggests real-time data processing, event-driven architectures, or message queuing.

AWS S3 : Knowledge of Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) indicates familiarity with cloud-based object storage, which could be used for various purposes like storing static assets, backups, or data for processing.
