About the Role

We are looking for a Senior Platform Developer with a strong background in Java backend development and scalable distributed systems, to build and evolve the core platform layer that powers CLEAR AI, our AI-driven applications and next-generation user experiences.

You will work at the intersection of backend engineering, AI systems, and front-end technologies, creating reliable, high-performance APIs and data services that enable smooth collaboration between our AI and UI teams.

Key Responsibilities

Design and build robust, scalable, and secure platform services using Java (17+), Spring Boot, and microservices architecture.

Develop high-performance APIs and data pipelines that seamlessly connect AI models, data services, and user interfaces.

Collaborate with AI engineers to integrate model inference endpoints, manage feature stores, and optimize real-time inference flows.

Partner with UI teams to deliver efficient REST/GraphQL APIs, ensuring smooth user-facing interactions.

Architect systems that handle large-scale data processing, streaming, and asynchronous workloads using tools like Kafka / SQS.

Contribute to platform-wide initiatives in observability, fault tolerance, and automation (CI/CD, Kubernetes, AWS).

Participate in technical design reviews, mentor junior engineers, and uphold clean code and engineering best practices.

Drive continuous improvements in performance, scalability, and developer productivity.

Required Skills & Experience

Expert-level skills in Java 11+, Spring Boot, and microservice-based architecture.

Strong experience with API design and integration, including REST, or GraphQL.

Hands-on experience in asynchronous and event-driven systems (Kafka, RabbitMQ, or SQS).

Deep understanding of multithreading, concurrency, and JVM performance tuning.

Experience working with databases (SQL and NoSQL e.g., PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis).

Familiarity with containerization (Docker) and cloud-native deployments (Kubernetes, AWS).

Proven track record in cross-functional collaboration, especially with AI or UI/UX teams.
