Urgent opening For Senior Backend Engineer (Java) - Pune

Dear Candidate,

Please find the details below,

Senior Backend Engineer (Java)

An experienced backend engineer working on document processing and content transformation systems within the academic publishing domain.

The role spans core Java development, complex file-format and specification handling, and backend service integration across cloud, messaging, and rules infrastructure.

Areas of Knowledge & Expertise

1. Core Language, OOP & Algorithmic Foundations

Java 17 as the primary language, with exposure to ANTLR4, Drools 8/MVEL rule engines, JavaScript, C++17, Pascal, and Lua. Strong grounding in OOP principles and design patterns (Visitor, Strategy, Adapter, Decorator, Facade). Comfortable applying tree traversal algorithms and dynamic programming; forward/backward chaining and branch-and-bound are a plus.

2. Document, Markup & Typesetting Format Expertise

Solid working knowledge of core web and document specifications (HTML5, XML/XSLT, JSON, CSS) and academic publishing formats (PDF Specification, JATS Specification, Unicode/UTF-8/16/32). Exposure to the broader publishing-format landscape — MathML, SVG, LaTeX/BibTeX/TeX engines, WIRIS MathType (MTEF), Microsoft Office formats (WordprocessingML, DrawingML, OMML, VML), legacy MS-DOC/CFB formats, bibliography styles and formats, font formats, and extended character encodings — is a strong plus.

3. Backend Frameworks, Integration & Infrastructure

Spring ecosystem (Framework, Boot, Integration), OpenFeign, and Jackson Core/DataBind, with document-processing libraries (PDFBox, Apache POI) and Docker/AWS S3/GCP Storage for deployment and storage. Experience with Aspose.Words, search/NLP libraries (Apache Lucene, Stanford CoreNLP), messaging systems (Kafka, Artemis JMS/Tibco EMS), and native interop via JNI (FontConfig, FreeType, HarfBuzz, Graphite2, TECKit) is a plus.

4. Build, Quality & Observability Tooling

Gradle 8 build pipelines, GitHub Actions CI, and testing with JUnit 5 and Mockito are core to the role. Familiarity with static analysis (Checkstyle, Spotbugs, XMLUnit) and observability tooling (Prometheus, Grafana, Kibana/ELK Stack) is a plus.
