Description

Our client, a IT Services and Consulting company, is looking for a Java Fullstack Lead for their Jersey City, NJ location.
 
Responsibilities:
  • Leads end-to-end delivery of full stack solutions using React, Java Spring Boot, GraphQL/REST, and AWS-managed services, from design through production support.
  • Drives architecture and design reviews, defining service boundaries, API contracts, data models, and integration patterns.
  • Develops secure, high-quality, production-grade code; conducts thorough code reviews; sets and enforces engineering standards.
  • Builds and maintains highly available and scalable services with strong operational excellence: reliability, performance, cost awareness, and maintainability.
  • Implements and governs authentication/authorization using OIDC/OAuth2, token validation, scopes/claims, and service-to-service security patterns.
  • Establishes robust observability practices (structured logging, metrics, tracing), incident response readiness (runbooks).
  • Evaluates vendor and internal solutions (including architectural fit, security posture, scalability, and operability) and guides adoption decisions.
  • Partners with Product and UX to deliver outcomes; translates requirements into technical plans and milestones; proactively manages trade-offs.
 
Requirements:
  • Top skills required for this role: Java (Spring Boot), React, AWS, RestAPI, AI (Claude or Copilot), DevOps, Kafka
  • Minimum 12+ years applied full stack engineering experience delivering and operating production systems; experience as a senior/lead capacity (technical leadership, design ownership).
  • React expertise: modern React patterns, TypeScript, state management, component design systems, performance optimization, and responsive UI development.
  • Java Spring Boot expertise: building APIs, dependency injection, validation, error handling, and performance tuning.
  • GraphQL proficiency: schema design, resolvers, federation/composition patterns (where applicable), query performance (N+1 mitigation, caching), and API governance/versioning strategy.
  • REST proficiency: OpenAPI-style contract design, pagination/filtering, idempotency, backward compatibility, and consumer-driven API evolution.
  • OIDC/OAuth2: hands-on implementation with JWTs, refresh/access token flows, scopes/claims, secure session patterns, and least-privilege access control.
  • AWS experience (hands-on): designing, deploying, and operating cloud-native applications; strong understanding of IAM, networking basics, and operational tooling (logs/metrics/alarms).
  • Data layer expertise: AWS Aurora PostgreSQL: advanced SQL, indexing, query optimization, migrations, and transactional design.
  • AWS Neptune: gremlin, graph modeling, query patterns, and performance considerations for graph workloads.
  • Event-driven systems: AWS Kafka (MSK): topics/partitions, consumer groups, schema evolution, ordering/at-least-once semantics, idempotency, retries/DLQs, and operational monitoring.
  • CI/CD and quality: Strong Git practices, automated testing (unit/integration/contract/e2e), code quality gates, and release confidence practices (feature flags, progressive rollout where applicable).
  • AI-assisted engineering (MUST): Demonstrated proficiency using Claude Code and/or GitHub Copilot to accelerate development, debugging, refactoring, test generation, and documentation—while ensuring correctness, security, and maintainability (e.g., validating outputs, avoiding sensitive data leakage, and adhering to team standards).
  • Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/CloudFormation/CDK) and deployment automation patterns.
  • Containerization and orchestration experience (Docker, ECS/EKS) depending on platform direction.
  • Advanced security practices: threat modeling, OWASP Top 10 mitigation, secrets management, dependency hygiene.
  • Experience defining platform standards: API governance, event contracts, service templates, and reliability SLOs/SLIs.
  • Prior experience integrating with Oracle HCM.
  • Years of Experience:   12+ Years of Experience
