Job Title: Java (Security Remediation & Release Management)

Location: Pune/ Bengaluru/ Mumbai/ Hyderabad/ Gurugram/ Chennai (Hybrid - 2 days a week from office) 

Experience: Min 4yrs in Java development

Role Description

Key Responsibilities

Java Development & Technical Fundamentals Demonstrate sound knowledge of Core Java, algorithms, and software engineering fundamentals. Develop and maintain application features and enhancements independently. Understand existing application, dependencies, and code flows. Work with CI/CD pipelines and understand build, deployment, and release processes. Quickly learn new technologies, frameworks, and application components as required.

AI-Assisted Development & Code Review Effectively leverage AI-powered development tools, including Claude and AI skills, to support coding, debugging, testing, and security remediation. Understand what AI-generated code or automation is doing rather than accepting outputs without verification. Review AI-generated code for correctness, maintainability, security, and alignment with requirements. Identify potential risks, limitations, and gaps in AI-generated solutions. Clearly justify technical decisions and explain why proposed changes are necessary. Apply engineering judgment and remain accountable for all AI-assisted deliverables.

Security Vulnerability Remediation Identify, analyze, and remediate security vulnerabilities in Java applications. Implement security fixes, dependency updates, and patches. Assess the impact of security changes on existing application functionality. Coordinate with relevant teams to validate remediation and obtain required approvals. Ensure security fixes are adequately tested before production deployment.

Testing, Verification & Validation Independently design and execute test cases for application changes and new features. Validate both happy-path and negative scenarios, including edge cases and failure conditions. Demonstrate creativity and analytical thinking in identifying scenarios beyond standard test cases. Assess the impact of changes on existing functionality. Verify and validate AI-generated code and security fixes. Make informed recommendations on whether a change is ready for production.

Production Releases & Deployment Ownership Independently coordinate and support production releases. Understand deployment procedures, release dependencies, and CI/CD workflows. Conduct release-readiness assessments covering testing, security, approvals, and operational risks. Clearly articulate why a release is ready for production, supported by evidence rather than assumptions. Obtain necessary stakeholder and change-management approvals. Identify potential failure scenarios and ensure appropriate mitigation and rollback plans are in place. Support post-deployment verification, validation, and issue resolution. Take ownership of release activities and ensure appropriate handover to US-based teams or data centre operations.

Production Support & Cross-Team Coordination Participate in a monthly production support or release roster. Coordinate effectively with development, testing, security, infrastructure, and US-based teams. Understand US data centre handover procedures and operational dependencies. Provide clear documentation, verification results, and deployment status updates. Troubleshoot production issues and support timely resolution. Maintain accountability for assigned tasks through completion. Required Technical Skills
