As a Lead Java Developer, you will take on a pivotal leadership role, guiding a talented team of Java developers to deliver cutting-edge solutions for a major online retail platform. You will be responsible for driving the design, development, and maintenance of high-performance, scalable microservices that power the backend of the e-commerce platform. This is a hands-on role that requires a mix of strong technical proficiency in Java and effective leadership to mentor your team and collaborate with cross-functional departments such as Product, UX/UI, and QA to build robust and innovative systems.

The Java Development team plays a critical role in delivering backend and middleware microservices, providing essential support to the company's e-commerce platforms, supply chain operations, and internal core systems.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead and mentor a team of Java developers, providing technical direction and hands-on support.
  • Drive the design, development, and deployment of scalable, high-quality Java applications.
  • Collaborate with Product Managers and stakeholders to gather business requirements and translate them into technical solutions.
  • Ensure the team adheres to coding standards, best practices, and security protocols.
  • Conduct thorough code reviews to ensure clean, maintainable, and well-documented code.
  • Stay informed about industry advancements and new technologies to promote continuous innovation and improvement.
  • Foster a team culture of collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and continuous learning.
  • Oversee project timelines, prioritize tasks, and ensure timely project delivery.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical challenges efficiently.
  • Take ownership of the performance, scalability, and overall health of the services your team is responsible for.

Requirements:

  • Extensive experience in Java development, with expertise in Java 11 or above (Java 17 preferred) and the Spring Boot framework.
  • Proven ability to lead and mentor development teams, offering both technical guidance and strategic insight.
  • Strong knowledge of software development methodologies, particularly Agile or Scrum frameworks.
  • Experience working with RESTful APIs, microservices architecture, and cloud technologies (AWS is a plus).
  • Proficiency in database technologies such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, or MongoDB.
  • Excellent problem-solving abilities with a critical and analytical approach to technical challenges.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively across multiple teams.
  • Familiarity with front-end technologies (e.g., HTML, CSS, JavaScript) is advantageous.
  • Experience in the e-commerce or fashion retail industries is highly desirable.
