AVAILABLE BEFORE 9/20/2026
Java
Technical Subject Matter Expert (SME) –  High-Level JD (Summary)
The Java Technical SME is the ultimate technical escalation point and hands-on "Strike Team" lead for the Java language pod. This is a heavy Backend Coding and Refactoring role responsible for tackling the most complex "XXL" deadlocks, classpath version mismatches, and critical API breaking changes in large-scale Java codebases. The SME intervenes when automated tools or standard engineers fail, ensuring that the repository remains stable during complex library integrations and framework migrations.
Detailed JD & Responsibilities
Core Responsibilities
  • Hands-On Hardcore Refactoring: Jump into complex, tangled Java codebase situations (such as legacy dependency conflicts or strict compilation failures) and rewrite backend application logic to support new library versions and Java runtimes.
  • Resolving Diamond Dependencies: Deeply analyze hierarchical Maven/Gradle dependency trees (POM trees) to resolve version lockups where child libraries hold parent upgrades hostage.
  • Custom Patching Management: Lead the effort in debugging and merging historical custom patches against modern, clean upstream updates.
  • Architectural Conversions: Execute complex package layout conversions and manage formal exception filings when in-place upgrades are impossible.
  • Build System Optimization: Resolve deep build system issues involving complex classloaders, annotation processing, and compilation flags.
