Design and document secure REST and WebSocket-based APIs.
Implement token-based authentication (e.g. JWT OAuth2) to secure backend systems.
Optimize applications for performance scalability and cost-effective deployment in cloud platforms (Azure AWS).
Collaboration & Leadership:
Collaborate with the Architecture Team Business Capability Sector and Application Support to align solutions with enterprise standards.
Work closely with frontend engineers to ensure seamless API integration and aligned response structures.
Mentor junior developers and lead Agile ceremonies promoting DevOps best practices and continuous improvement.
Analysis & Documentation:
Translate business requirements into technical designs in collaboration with architects and analysts.
Prepare and maintain HLA HLD and LLD documentation or equivalent Agile artifacts (e.g. user stories).
Document microservice designs including functionality dependencies API specs and deployment guides.
Quality Assurance & Performance:
Conduct code reviews to enforce standards improve quality and provide feedback.
Analyze backend services to identify and eliminate bottlenecks through refactoring and optimization.
Implement performance testing load balancing and caching strategies to ensure robust performance.
