We are looking for talented individuals with a deep passion for technology, purposeful innovation, a desire to learn, and a great sense of ownership and accountability.
As a Senior Developer in the Payments Data Services team, you will lead the creation of comprehensive end-to-end detailed solutions with overall accountability for technical design and delivery. You will be exposed to stretch assignments as you take on data-driven projects focussing on our Payment Operation Data Store (PODS).
Your Responsibilities
You will lead the creation of a comprehensive end-to-end detailed solution with overall accountability for the technical design and delivery. This includes application design and development activities, with hands-on experience in Java and Spring Boot applications. You will develop and document detailed solution designs within SDS, imparting your subject matter expertise throughout the lifecycle. You will apply expert knowledge of the business, broader organisation, technical environment, standards, processes, tools, procedures, multiple programming languages, operating systems, solutions design, and other relevant technology areas from a design, support, and solutions perspective.
You will work autonomously in a lead capacity on a diverse range of activities, such as designing and supporting technical business solutions, and will coach, educate, and monitor the work of others. As a primary subject matter expert in multiple areas, you will counsel clients and project teams on all aspects of research, analysis, design, software support, and development of technical solutions. You will participate in complex applications and systems development and programming, proposing solution options and generating stakeholder support.
Your role involves producing top-notch functional, technical, and user interface designs. You will take business, Enterprise Architecture, system performance, and development standards requirements, then develop functional, technical, and user interface designs for applications and systems. You will review technical deliverables for quality throughout the detailed design and development phase, identifying gaps or redesigning as needed. You will define metrics and performance goals with technology partners and peers, respecting TD's technology delivery practices and standards, project management disciplines, business technology architecture, and risk and production capacity, including thorough project requirements, documentation, scope estimates, and costs.
You will deliver effective and efficient solutions by meeting milestones and ensuring project deliverables are on time, within budget, and adhere to corporate quality and security standards. You will conduct code reviews to address quality, standards compliance, reusability, and ease of maintenance, perform Operational Readiness Reviews, and provide Level 3 production troubleshooting support. You will support knowledge management processes, ensuring knowledge is codified, monitored, tracked, and managed. You will ensure designs leverage existing reusable components, trace back to business requirements, and that new modules are designed with reusability in mind. You will identify and address any issues affecting the integrity of the application, such as cross-capability or release issues.
You will lead, inspire, and mentor team members on the use of Software Development best practices and Agile practices. Working within an Agile delivery model, you will actively participate in and contribute to sprint ceremonies including backlog refinement, sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives. You will provide technical leadership during backlog refinement by supporting story definition, estimation, and identifying dependencies and risks. You will partner with Product Owners, Business Systems Analysts (BSAs), and Quality Engineers (QE) to ensure stories are delivery-ready and aligned with the Definition of Ready and Definition of Done.
What You'll Bring
You will possess 3-5+ years of development and design experience in Java EE, along with 3-5+ years of experience with frameworks like Spring, Spring MVC, Spring Boot, Spring Batch, and Spring Security (OAuth, LDAP). You will also have 3-5+ years of experience with RESTful API development and 3-5+ years of experience with document-oriented databases, ideally MongoDB. Additionally, 2+ years of experience with Kafka is required. Hands-on experience with development tools and frameworks such as Maven, Jenkins, Gradle, Git, and Nexus is essential.
Valuable assets include experience with Agile/Waterfall and SDLC/PMLC processes, hands-on experience with SSO, MFA, PingFed, OIDC, OAuth, and API gateways.
