Job summary

We are looking for a Software Engineer who writes clean, reliable Java and Python code and works well inside a team. You will build and maintain backend services and web applications for large-scale MIS and public-sector platforms. You must think critically, understand how computers and networks really work, and use modern AI coding tools to deliver faster without lowering quality.

Key responsibilities

1. 1.       Design, develop, test and maintain backend services and web applications using Java, Spring Boot and Spring MVC.

   2.       Build scripts, data-processing jobs, integrations and utilities in Python.

   3.       Design and consume RESTful APIs; integrate with third-party and government systems.

   4.       Design database schemas and write efficient queries (PostgreSQL / MySQL / Oracle).

   5.       Take part in every stage of the SDLC: requirement analysis, estimation, design, coding, testing, deployment and maintenance.

   6.       Set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines (e.g. Jenkins, GitLab CI or GitHub Actions) for automated build, test and deployment.

   7.       Write unit and integration tests (JUnit, Mockito, PyTest) and fix defects reported by QA.

   8.       Use AI-assisted development tools (e.g. Claude, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, ChatGPT) to speed up coding, testing, documentation and debugging — and review AI output critically before merging.

   9.       Troubleshoot issues across application, server and network layers in development, staging and production.

   10.   Join code reviews, sprint planning, stand-ups and retrospectives; share knowledge openly with the team.

   11.   Write clear technical documentation: API specs, design notes and deployment guides.

   12.   Learn new frameworks, tools or domains quickly when a project needs them.
