• Support implementation of AI-enabled features by integrating approved AI services or models into applications, following team standards for quality and monitoring.
• Troubleshoot and resolve application issues with guidance from senior team members, including participating in root-cause analysis and implementing fixes to prevent recurrence.
• Follow secure coding practices and help ensure solutions meet security and compliance requirements (for example: access controls, encryption, logging, and policy-aligned data handling).
• Contribute to continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) activities and updates in partnership with DevOps to support repeatable deployments.
• Implement and maintain basic observability practices such as logging, metrics, and alerts; help keep operational documentation and runbooks current.
• Collaborate with cross-functional partners to plan, deliver, test, and support software releases.
• Participate in code reviews, team ceremonies, and technical documentation to build skills and align with shared standards.

Required Skills

• Experience developing backend applications or services in Java (academic, internship, or professional experience).
• Basic understanding of cloud concepts and interest/experience working on GCP (coursework or hands-on exposure is acceptable).
• Familiarity with REST APIs including common integration patterns and basic authentication/authorization concepts.
• Exposure to AI concepts or AI service integration (for example: using an API for summarization, classification, or extraction) and willingness to learn evaluation/monitoring basics.
• Understanding of secure engineering fundamentals (least privilege, secrets handling, encryption basics, and audit logging concepts).
• Familiarity with Git and modern development workflows; exposure to CI/CD concepts is a plus.
• Strong problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills, with the ability to learn from feedback and follow established engineering practices.

Preferred Qualifications

• Exposure to Agile methodologies and Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) practices.
• Familiarity with change/configuration management tools (for example: VersionOne, ServiceNow) and/or Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) practices.
• Hands-on exposure to container or serverless concepts (for example: Docker, Kubernetes fundamentals, or managed/serverless deployments).

Experience and Education

• Minimum of 1 3 years of experience in software development (including internships, co-ops, or equivalent project experience).
