Build what matters.
Scale what heals.
At Alcon, you won’t just ship code—you’ll build platforms that directly impact how patients see the world.
We are looking for a hands-on Sr.

👉 https://www.myalcon.com/professional/adi/
The Role (What You’ll Own)
- Define and own architecture for high-scale, cloud-native platforms used globally
- Lead from the front: stay hands-on while guiding engineering teams
- Build and evolve microservices ecosystems (Java, Spring Boot, AWS)
- Drive adoption of AI/GenAI capabilities (AWS Bedrock preferred) into real products—not PoCs
- Partner directly with Product Management & Customer Ops leaders to shape outcomes
- Set the bar for engineering excellence (DevOps, CI/CD via Azure DevOps, security, reliability)
- Influence technical direction across teams—not just within your scope
What Sets You Apart
- You own problems end-to-end, not just components
- You can switch seamlessly between architecture, coding, and stakeholder discussions
- You’ve built and scaled distributed systems that actually run in production at scale
- You bring pragmatism to AI adoption (you know what works vs. hype)
- You elevate teams— through mentorship, standards, and example
Core Experience
