The candidate will also be responsible for optimizing application performance, reliability, and security, while actively participating in code reviews and mentoring junior developers.

Key Responsibilities
Design, develop, and maintain scalable microservices leveraging Java and Spring Boot frameworks. You will be responsible for deploying and managing these applications on the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform, ensuring smooth operation and scalability.

Build and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines using tools such as Jenkins, GitLab CI, or GitHub Actions to automate deployment processes and improve development efficiency. Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams including DevOps, QA, and frontend developers to achieve seamless integration and delivery of software components.

Optimize applications for enhanced performance, reliability, and security by implementing best practices and continuously monitoring system health. Troubleshoot and debug production issues within the OpenShift environment to minimize downtime and maintain service quality.
