Responsibilities
- Learn the team’s tools, coding standards, and development workflow (Git, ticketing, CI/CD) with mentor support.
- Collaborate across the software development lifecycle: requirements, design, implementation, testing, and release.
- Implement well-scoped features and bug fixes in Java/Kotlin, following established patterns and best practices.
- Write, review, and optimize queries and data-access code for SQL Server and PostgreSQL.
- Contribute to data modeling and access patterns for DynamoDB (partition/sort keys, query vs. scan, performance considerations).
- Build and maintain automated tests (unit and/or integration) and verify changes meet acceptance criteria.
- Participate in design and code review discussions; communicate tradeoffs (performance, reliability, security, maintainability).
- Support AWS-based development activities such as reviewing logs/metrics, investigating issues, and assisting with deployments (scope based on experience).
- Document technical changes and operational notes to improve maintainability and support.
Required Skills
- Coursework or project experience with Java or Kotlin and object-oriented programming fundamentals.
- Working knowledge of SQL and relational database concepts (tables, joins, indexes, transactions).
- Strong problem-solving, analytical thinking, and attention to detail.
- Ability to communicate clearly and collaborate effectively on a team.
- Openness to feedback and willingness to learn quickly.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with both SQL Server and/or PostgreSQL (query tuning, indexing, migrations).
- Familiarity with DynamoDB/NOSQL concepts (key design, throughput, eventual consistency).
- Exposure to AWS services such as IAM, CloudWatch, S3, EC2, ECS/EKS, Lambda, or RDS/Aurora.
- Experience with Git and pull request workflows; familiarity with CI/CD.
- Exposure to backend frameworks and APIs (e.g. REST/JSON).
- Knowledge of AI coding assistant tools.
- Familiarity with testing tools (e.g., JUnit) and basic debugging practices.
