Full Job Description
JOB SUMMARY:
The client Production Support Java Software Developers contribute to the reliability, capability, and efficiency of our core business operations. Our support and maintenance portfolio includes a variety of critical, ongoing systems-ranging from processing monthly payments through banking institutions and enhancing online services for members, to reengineering legacy client-server applications into modern intranet web applications.

As a Production Support Java Software Developer, you will be a vital member of our dedicated Production Support Team. Instead of rigid sprint cycles, your focus will be on ensuring system uptime, diagnosing complex production issues, and deploying critical patches and enhancements. You will work closely with a team of 4-7 technical peers, led by the client business and technology leaders, alongside an experienced Technical Lead who will collaborate with you to ensure team success. Our deployment pipeline, issue tracking, and support methodologies are rooted in modern
DevOps concepts and managed via Atlassian Jira.

What You'll Do

We enable our Production Support Engineers to work across the entire application stack to troubleshoot, patch, and optimize our systems.
Our team members are full-stack generalists who dive into every tier of an application:
Automated Testing & QA: Writing and maintaining test scripts to prevent regressions.
User Interface & Controller Logic: Tweaking front-end views and managing application flow.
Back-End Services & Database Operations: Tuning queries, fixing APIs, and ensuring data integrity.
Over time, your troubleshooting and development skills will broaden and remain current because our production systems depend upon modern versions of the following popular frameworks and technologies: Java 8/17+, the Spring Framework, Oracle databases, Apache Tomcat, jQuery, Bootstrap, Cucumber, and Selenium.
