Scala Programming

• Primary skills:Technology->Functional Programming->Scala

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain backend services and components using Scala aligned to business and technical requirements.
• Build concurrent and resilient systems leveraging Akka (actors, routing, fault tolerance) and apply best practices for scalability and performance.
• Develop and enhance APIs and web services using the Play Framework, ensuring secure and reliable integrations.
• Manage builds, dependencies, and packaging using SBT; maintain consistent project structure and build hygiene.
• Write clean, testable code; create unit and integration tests and participate in peer code reviews to uphold quality standards.
• Troubleshoot production issues, perform root-cause analysis, and implement preventive fixes with proper documentation.
• Collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders to estimate work, plan deliverables, and support timely releases.
• Contribute to continuous improvement by refining coding standards, improving performance, and supporting automation in delivery pipelines. Minimum Qualifications:
• Bachelor’s/Master’s degree (or equivalent) in Engineering/Computer Science/IT (e.g., BTech, BE, MCA, MSc, MTech).
• 3–5 years of hands-on experience in backend development with strong proficiency in Scala.
• Practical experience with Akka, Play Framework, and SBT in real-world projects.
• Solid understanding of object-oriented and functional programming concepts, concurrency, and performance considerations.
• Experience with debugging, code reviews, and writing automated tests to ensure maintainable, reliable software. Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience designing and building distributed systems and microservice-style architectures using Scala-based ecosystems.
• Strong exposure to API design patterns, authentication/authorization concepts, and integration best practices.
• Familiarity with reactive programming principles and building fault-tolerant, event-driven services.
• Experience improving build and release workflows (dependency management, versioning, packaging) and supporting CI/CD practices.
• Demonstrated ability to mentor peers, communicate technical trade-offs clearly, and drive improvements in code quality and performance. Good to have skills: Microservices, REST API Design, Reactive Programming, CI/CD, Docker
