Location: O'Fallon, Missouri (Main Campus) There is a requirement to be onsite 2 days a week Must be LOCAL manager has had bad luck with relocations, only wants local. The ideal candidate would be a Core Java Developer with experience in Spring Boot, Splunk/Dynatrace, and Messaging (IBM MQ or Kafka or Flame IBM MQ most preferred) Core Java based Dev Spring Boot Messaging services we use IBM MQ currently and prefer this. We will also consider Kafka or Flame Message Server (FMS). IBM MQ is the most preferred! Splunk or Dynatrace (Splunk more preferred, both would be even better) Exp working with high service volume, integrating messages to MQs and working with Java 3 top skills Working on day to day basis on implementing a specific feature that we have in our pipeline. Will work with architect and senior software engineers to support this implementation. Once this feature is complete. We will continue to engage with NextEdge program We expect knowledge in Splunk and Dynatrace- both are needed from a high-volume application perspective to analyze the logs and perform any retrospective action related to performance if needed There will be a high focus on testing performance, being a developer in a high level application, we expect them to have the knowledge and the ability to detect anything with performance to ensure it is in line with the benchmark that is already there The program will be executed through SAFE Agile and we have standup/retros/grooming and should actively participate and ask questions, drive some of those decisions with stakeholders We work with the leadership within NextEdge and senior engineer and architect who both have 10+ years of experience in MasterCard and we have engaged IBM as well so it is a very close collaboration This is not a testing role will check with the Glider again. This is not a testing requirement, however it goes without saying because it is a self sufficient entity who knows when adding changes they verify from functionality and its impact on performance and that is why they will refer to Splunk and Dynatrace. CICD is not expected for them to be more on the DevOps side of it. CICD is lower on the list here. It is primarily Java, Messaging, with experience on Splunk, Dynatrace and within SAFE Agile The product is actually TSI transaction service interface and within it is a tech asset. The entire purpose of this program is to take the entire MasterCard payment network to the next level
