SDE - 3

We build an NLP/LLM-based medical coding platform on Java and Spring Boot. Over the last year we've moved a large part of our SDLC onto agentic tooling; design docs, implementation, code review, test generation, and production triage are increasingly agent-assisted, with engineers acting as architects and reviewers rather than line-by-line authors. We're hiring engineers who have already made this shift somewhere else. If your last year looked like "I used Copilot autocomplete sometimes, " this isn't the role. If it looked like "I restructured how my team ships software around coding agents, and here's what broke and what I fixed, " we want to talk

The core responsibilities for the job include the following:

Backend engineering:

• Design, build, and own backend services in Java, Spring Boot, and a microservices architecture with real accountability for performance, scalability, and robustness.
• Own server-side logic, data models, APIs, and integrations end to end.
• Drive HLD and LLD for new services and for material refactors of existing ones.

Agentic SDLC ownership:

• Own how agentic tooling is applied across our SDLC spec/design, implementation, review, testing, and production monitoring, not just at the coding step.
• Build and maintain the scaffolding that makes agents effective on a large codebase: repo-level context and instruction files, custom agents/subagents, slash commands and reusable workflows, and MCP integrations to internal systems (Jira, BigQuery, observability, and docs).
• Define the review bar for agent-generated code: what gets human-reviewed, what gets gated by tests, what never gets delegated.
• Instrument and evaluate the workflow cycle time, review turnaround, escape defect rate, and test coverage on agent-authored changes and iterate on the basis of that data, not vibes.
• Raise the team's ceiling: onboard engineers onto these workflows, run internal enablement, and set guardrails for security, licensing, and data handling when agents touch source code and production data.

Leadership:

• Lead cross-team functional design reviews, technical direction, and mentoring senior and mid-level engineers.
• Make and defend build/buy/delegate decisions on tooling.

Requirements:

• 6+ years in backend engineering, with at least 2 in a lead or tech-lead capacity.
• Strong proficiency in Java, Spring Boot, Hibernate/JPA, and microservices.
• Demonstrated experience in HLD and LLD and in designing, building, and deploying microservices-based systems in production.
• Hands-on agentic SDLC experience within the last 12 months: You have shipped production software where AI agents were a primary part of the workflow.
• Concretely, experience with tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Devin, Copilot Workspace/agent mode, Aider, or equivalents applied to at least three of the following: design, implementation, code review, test generation, and production debugging/monitoring.
• Practical judgment about where agents fail context management on large codebases, hallucinated APIs, silently wrong tests, review fatigue, and concrete mitigations you've put in place.
• Solid grounding in Git, CI/CD, and automated testing, including how these change when a large share of diffs are agent-authored.
• Strong SDLC fundamentals and a track record of working with multiple teams.
