This platform processes complex, tiered fee structures and high-volume transactional workflows across multiple business lines, demanding ultra-low latency, strict transactional integrity (ACID), high availability, and clean, resilient code design.

As a Senior Developer, your primary focus will be active coding, system design, query optimization, automated testing, and CI/CD deployment. You will work closely with lead architects, product analysts, and engineering peers to build robust full-stack solutions, debug complex issues, refactor legacy components, and champion software craftsmanship across modern Java and Angular frameworks.

Key Responsibilities
1. Hands-On Full-Stack Development & Microservices Engineering Core Application Development:
Write clean, modular, efficient, and well-documented code across distributed Core Java / Spring Boot microservices and modern Angular SPAs.Calculation Engine Implementation:
Implement and maintain high-throughput financial calculation logic, fee algorithms, and multi-asset billing workflows requiring low-latency execution and high concurrency.

API & System Integration:
Design, develop, and consume secure, robust RESTful APIs and asynchronous event-driven messaging pipelines (Kafka / RabbitMQ / JMS).Refactoring & Modernization:
Actively contribute to legacy code modernization, containerization (Docker, Open Shift / Kubernetes), and framework upgrades to maintain modern architectural standards.

Debugging & Problem Solving:
Deep-dive into complex runtime issues, thread contention, memory leaks, and distributed transaction bottlenecks to deliver rapid, permanent technical fixes.
2. Database Development & Query Optimization Schema Design & SQL Engineering:
Develop and optimize complex SQL queries, stored procedures, table schemas, and indexing strategies on relational databases (MSSQL, Oracle, or PostgreSQL).Data Integrity & Consistency:
Ensure strict transactional integrity (ACID compliance), robust error handling, and auditable financial data processing across high-volume batch and real-time streams.

Performance Tuning:
Conduct database profiling, execution plan analysis, and query tuning to eliminate batch bottlenecks and reduce processing times.
3. Software Quality, Automated Testing & Dev Ops Test  Automation (TDD/BDD):
Write comprehensive unit, integration, and component tests using JUnit, Mockito, and relevant mocking frameworks to maintain high test coverage.

Code Quality & Best Practices:
Adhere to enterprise static analysis standards (Sonar Qube) and participate actively in peer code reviews to maintain high coding standards and prevent vulnerabilities.

CI/CD & Deployment Automation:
Build, maintain, and troubleshoot CI/CD pipelines (Bitbucket, Jenkins, Harness), automated build scripts, and container deployment manifests.

Production Support & L3 Troubleshooting:
Partner with SRE and Dev Ops teams to triage Level 3 production issues, analyze logs and metrics (Splunk, Grafana, Prometheus), and implement permanent root-cause fixes.
4. Technical Collaboration & Agile Execution Agile Sprint Delivery:
Actively participate in sprint planning,…
