- Key Responsibilities:
- Java 8 Development:
- Develop scalable, maintainable, and high-performance applications using Java 8 and its advanced features such as Streams, Lambdas, Functional Interfaces, and Date/Time API.
- Write clean, efficient, and reusable code while adhering to best practices in Java development.
- Leverage Java 8 features to improve the performance and maintainability of applications.
- Web Services Development:
- Design and implement RESTful APIs and SOAP-based Web Services for integration with various internal and external systems.
- Use technologies such as JAX-RS (for REST) and JAX-WS (for SOAP) for building and deploying services.
- Work with JSON and XML data formats, ensuring that web services are optimized for performance, scalability, and reliability.
- API Integration & Management:
- Design, implement, and maintain robust API solutions to integrate with front-end applications, mobile devices, or third-party services.
- Ensure smooth integration with databases, external systems, and other internal services via REST and SOAP APIs.
- Monitor, test, and optimize APIs for performance and security.
- Database Interaction:
- Design and implement data models, and interact with relational databases (e.g., MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL) and NoSQL databases.
- Write efficient SQL queries and perform CRUD operations.
- Work with JPA (Java Persistence API) and Hibernate for ORM-based database management.
- Code Quality & Best Practices:
- Ensure code is well-tested by writing unit tests using JUnit, Mockito, or other testing frameworks.
- Conduct peer code reviews to maintain quality, consistency, and adherence to coding standards.
- Optimize code for performance and maintainability using design patterns and other best practices.
- Version Control & Collaboration:
- Use Git for version control, branching, and code management.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including front-end developers, product managers, and QA engineers, to ensure the smooth development of the project.
- Performance & Scalability:
- Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks in both the backend (Java code) and the integration layer (Web Services).
- Implement solutions that ensure the application can scale to meet growing demand while maintaining a fast response time.
- Agile Development:
- Participate in an Agile development process, attending sprint planning, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives.
- Contribute to requirements analysis, design, and technical specifications for new features.
- Documentation:
- Maintain clear and comprehensive documentation for web services and API specifications.
- Document code thoroughly to ensure knowledge transfer and future maintainability.
