Responsibilities
- Module Ownership
- Own one or more fault-management modules end-to-end
- Write LLD documents for every feature request and present for team review
- Drive technical decisions within your module — velocity vs. reliability trade-offs
- Near-Real-Time Pipelines
- Build event-driven pipelines with Kafka Streams and Kafka Connect for fault ingestion, correlation, and enrichment
- Implement Spark batch and micro-batch jobs for large-scale fault analytics
- Meet SLA targets for latency, throughput, and fault tolerance
- Backend Engineering
- Build cloud-native microservices using Java and Spring Boot
- Design idempotent consumers, DLQs, and back-pressure for exactly-once / at-least-once semantics
- Agentic Development
- Use LLM-assisted coding and AI pair-programming tools to accelerate delivery
- Integrate ML-powered anomaly detection and RCA into fault workflows
- Prototype new AI capabilities that improve automated fault resolution rates
- Debugging & Incident Support
- Diagnose issues across Kafka brokers, Streams topologies, Spark executors, and Spring Boot services
- Primary escalation point for critical production incidents in your module
- Write runbooks and post-mortems to prevent repeat incidents
- Quality & Operational Excellence
- Unit, integration, and contract tests; peer code reviews
- Observability — metrics, tracing, structured logging; on-call rotation
- Contribute to CI/CD and infra-as-code improvements
Required Skills
- 3–8 years of hands-on backend / data engineering experience
- Production Kafka systems — topics, partitioning, consumer groups, offset management
- Kafka Streams DSL and Processor API; stateful and stateless topologies
- Kafka Connect — source and sink connectors, lifecycle management
- Apache Spark — Structured Streaming, DataFrames, Spark SQL at scale
- Java 11+ and Spring Boot 3.x — REST, security, reactive patterns
- Deep debugging across multi-threaded, distributed JVM systems
- LLD/HLD documentation; distributed systems principles (CAP theorem, eventual consistency)
Good to Have
AIOps or observability platform experience
Agentic development workflows or LLM-integrated toolchains
Telecom fault management standards (TM Forum, IETF YANG/NETCONF) or OSS/BSS domain knowledge
Kubernetes, service meshes, cloud-native deployments (AWS / Azure / GCP)
