Job Summary:

We are looking for a Senior Front End Developer. In this role, you will architect resilient enterprise REST APIs utilizing robust Java technologies, while simultaneously building and refining clean, intuitive frontend system configurations using Angular.

This position bridges the gap between software development, DevOps infrastructure, and rigorous end-to-end quality assurance validation. You will take complete ownership of complex integration flows, optimize automated CI/CD pipelines, ensure absolute data integrity through systematic test case execution, and monitor production reliability using advanced logging and observability suites.

Key Responsibilities

  • Backend Engineering & API Design: Design, build, test, and maintain highly secure and scalable RESTful web services.
  • Frontend UI & Configuration: Develop and refine clear, highly interactive web components and configuration dashboards within single-page applications using Angular, ensuring a seamless interface for handling technical settings.
  • Integration & Onboarding Orchestration: Lead the technical validation and end-to-end verification of customer and vendor onboarding pipelines, ensuring absolute reliability and zero-fault data flow across integrated applications.
  • Workflow & Release Management: Manage deep system configurations, handling structured workflows for API subscription lifecycles, access provisioning, and coordinated software release management across multiple runtime environments.

  • Observability & Troubleshooting: Perform advanced debugging and root-cause analysis on highly complex system environments. Leverage logs and application performance metrics in Splunk and Datadog to proactively diagnose and resolve errors.
  • Comprehensive Quality Assurance (QA): Collaborate closely with independent engineering squads to validate third-party integrations. Create detailed functional test matrices, automate critical path regression test scenarios, and manage structural defect tracking to guarantee absolute production readiness.
