This role requires deep Java expertise, strong design and problem-solving skills, and the ability to influence engineering direction through code, architecture contributions, and technical mentoring. You will work closely with engineering, architecture, DevOps, QA, and product teams to deliver high-quality solutions aligned with business and technology goals.

This role reports to a Project Manager / Senior Manager.

Primary Responsibilities

Own and drive hands-on design and development of complex, enterprise-scale Java applications.
Lead technical direction for modules or subsystems while remaining actively involved in implementation.
Support modernization initiatives, including migration from legacy or monolithic systems to modern architectures.
Act as a technical mentor and role model for engineers across teams.
Ensure solutions meet performance, scalability, security, and maintainability expectations.
Collaborate closely with product, QA, DevOps, and architecture teams to deliver end-to-end solutions.

Specific Assignments:

Software Engineering & Development

• Design, develop, and maintain backend and full-stack features using Java, Spring Boot, REST APIs, and relational databases.
• Support modernization of legacy Java applications to modern, cloud-ready architectures.
• Build modular services and support microservices-based designs where applicable.
• Design and integrate RESTful APIs, backend services, and data models.
• Support UI teams building Angular or React frontends by providing robust backend APIs.
• Implement high-performance data processing and integration logic for analytical workflows.

Design

• Apply object-oriented design principles and design patterns (SOLID, OOP, layered / hexagonal architecture).
• Contribute to application and solution architecture discussions.
• Perform technical trade-off analysis and guide design decisions.
• Ensure clean, extensible, and maintainable codebases.

Quality, Performance & Reliability

• Ensure high code quality through unit testing, mocking frameworks, and static code analysis.
• Perform performance profiling, memory analysis, and JVM tuning to resolve bottlenecks.
• Support performance tuning and stability improvements in production environments.
• Work closely with QA teams to ensure strong test coverage and release quality.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

 Technical Leadership

• Contribute to the geospatial technical strategy, standards, and patterns for enterprise‑scale delivery.

• Implement solutions spanning data models, analytics workflows, ArcGIS Enterprise patterns, and automation—optimizing for accuracy, performance, scalability, and security.

• Drive automation and quality using Python/ArcPy, FME (Form & Flow), ModelBuilder, and reproducible workflows; apply Arcade where appropriate.

• Deliver modern visualization and UX via ArcGIS Experience Builder (Web Experience) and Dashboards and enable field operations with Survey123 and Field Maps.

• Ensure robust enterprise/file geodatabase stewardship (schema design, standards, metadata, versioning) and integration with CAD/BIM, databases ( SQL), and APIs.

• Apply advanced analytics patterns (e.g., multi‑criteria decision analysis for site selection) and support emerging digital‑twin use cases.

 Program & Project Delivery

• Oversee delivery across large/complex or multi‑disciplinary programs; assure scope, schedule, budget, and quality.

• Govern consistent workflows, documentation, metadata, and QA/QC, including internal/client Technical Quality Review (TQR) and senior technical reviews.

• Proactively manage risks, dependencies, and interfaces with engineering, environmental, and digital teams; continuously improve workflows and delivery efficiency.

Client Consulting & Growth

• Act as a senior technical advisor, translating complex needs into practical geospatial solutions that deliver measurable value.

• Lead/shape proposals, cost estimates, solution design, and pricing in alignment with approved business governance; contribute to market strategy and strategic pursuits.

• Build, maintain and grow long‑term client relationships, with emphasis on Environment sector needs and value.

• Proactively enhance the profile and market presence of the Geospatial business by leading client development workshops, producing and presenting thought leadership, and contributing to industry award submissions.
