What this job asks for AI summary

A hands-on senior engineering role focused on designing, building, and maintaining cloud-based software products using Java and microservices architecture. The position involves end-to-end feature delivery, mentoring less experienced engineers, and contributing to architectural decisions within a global team. Candidates with strong Java, containerization, relational and NoSQL database experience, and some exposure to LLM/AI integration are the target profile.

Most people in this occupation already list these. Still required — just not what gets you shortlisted.

What the occupation pays Median $138,970 (middle half $107,524–$175,762). This posting is about at that midpoint.

Estimated from BLS employment for this occupation and area, per-skill prevalence across our listing corpus, and published wage benchmarks — as of Jul 28, 2026. It is a model, not a headcount.

Why we read it this way (8)

No specific work location or metro area is stated in the posting; the CBSA fields are left blank. The compensation range ($142K–$175K/year) suggests a US-based role.

The posting does not explicitly state remote or on-site; remote is set to false as no remote option is mentioned.

The degree requirement is a Bachelor's in CS/Software Engineering 'or similar' — no equivalent-experience substitution is offered, so it is treated as a hard gate.

The CI/CD tools requirement lists Eclipse/IntelliJ and Visual Studio alongside Maven, Jenkins, and Artifactory as a bundled group; Maven and Jenkins are emitted as the representative build/CI tools. Artifactory is a close companion but the requirement is for the category broadly.

Redis, Elasticsearch, and MongoDB are listed together as NoSQL stores under 'Solid exposure to' — a softer phrase than the relational DB requirement, but still in the required qualifications section. They are captured as a single skill with alternatives.

The LLM APIs / prompt engineering requirement carries a 3-year figure and sits in the required qualifications section, making it a hard gate despite being an emerging skill area.

JavaScript is listed alongside TypeScript and React under Preferred Requirements and is therefore preferred, not required.

Application Performance Management tools (DataDog, NewRelic, AppDynamics, ELK) are listed under Preferred Requirements; DataDog is emitted as the primary with NewRelic and AppDynamics as alternatives. ELK (Elasticsearch) is omitted here to avoid duplication with the NoSQL skill.
