Java Tech Lead (5–6 Years Experience)
About the Role
We are seeking a highly skilled Java Tech Lead with 5–6 years of hands-on experience in backend engineering, architecture design, and leading development teams.
The ideal candidate will combine strong technical expertise in Java frameworks with a deep understanding of system design, scalability, and performance optimization.
This role involves technical leadership, code reviews, and architectural decision-making for complex enterprise systems — with occasional exposure to analytics-driven and Python-based components.
Key Responsibilities
- Architect, design, and develop scalable backend systems using Java (Quarkus, Spring Boot, Spring, Java EE).
- Own the architecture — ensure modular, extensible, and high-performance service design.
- Lead and mentor a team of developers; conduct code reviews, enforce best practices, and ensure high code quality.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams (frontend, DevOps, product, data) to deliver integrated, end-to-end solutions.
- Design and optimize database schemas (MySQL, PostgreSQL) and ensure efficient query performance.
- Implement and maintain microservices and distributed systems with strong fault tolerance and observability.
- Drive the adoption of modern development workflows — Git branching strategy, CI/CD, and code quality automation.
- Analyze system performance bottlenecks, implement monitoring, and ensure smooth production deployments.
- Contribute to architecture reviews, technical documentation, and design discussions.
- Occasionally contribute to Python-based analytics modules or automation scripts.
- Work with AWS cloud services (EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda) for deployment, scaling, and infrastructure automation.
Required Skills & Qualifications
- 5–6 years of professional experience in backend application development using Java.
- Strong proficiency in Java frameworks: Quarkus, Spring Boot, Spring, Java EE.
- Proven experience in architecture design, system decomposition, and microservices design principles.
- Solid understanding of object-oriented design (OOD), design patterns, and SOLID principles.
- Strong experience with relational databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL) and query optimization.
- Good understanding of event-driven systems, RESTful APIs, and asynchronous processing.
- Proficiency in Git for version control and team collaboration.
- Strong analytical and debugging skills; ability to diagnose complex production issues.
Good to Have
- Hands-on experience with Python for data processing or analytics integrations.
- Familiarity with AWS cloud architecture and cost optimization practices.
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI).
- Knowledge of Docker/Kubernetes for containerized deployments.
- Exposure to NoSQL databases (MongoDB, DynamoDB, Cassandra).
- Experience with message queues (Kafka, RabbitMQ, or AWS SQS).
- Understanding of system scalability, caching (Redis/Memcached), and observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK).
Soft Skills
- Strong leadership, mentoring, and communication skills.
- Proven ability to drive technical decisions and balance short-term delivery with long-term architectural health.
- Collaborative mindset — works closely with product, design, and operations teams.
- Passion for clean architecture, high performance, and continuous improvement.
- Self-driven with a strong sense of ownership and accountability.

Swift is building a next generation checkout stack for India - a platform rolling up payments and logistics solution for all fulfillment needs. We give businesses the opportunity to provide a customer experience at par with the likes of Amazon and Flipkart, all the while saving money and time.
Its basically Amazon without the website listing - we let our sellers design their own sales channel :-)
We believe there are many things a seller or small business has to worry about when selling online, logistics/payments/etc shouldn't be one of them. With our solution, SMBs and D2C brands get access to technologies and services like next day delivery, same day delivery, live package tracking, Card/Cash on delivery, scheduled delivery etc, making parcel delivery just as simple as collecting payment.
We also provide robust APIs which makes it easy for developers to add shipping capabilities to their multichannel online store.
We want to be the #1 checkout platform that’s reliable, easy to use and affordable.
About you:
You have experience in Java/Scala/JVM based languages and have an understanding of server design and implementation. You are looking for challenges in growing a product from hundreds to millions of visitors per month making thousands of transactions a day.
You like working with streaming/reactive architectures and have experience/interest in setting up MongoDB based cloud infra from scratch. You generally prefer to use a minimal set of simple tools to a diverse range of complex ones.
We are looking to build a back-end cloud infrastructure (on Java/Scala with Google Cloud Platform preferably) which will be a fault-tolerant real-time stream processing system on the cloud - Our system will need to meet liveliness guarantees from a web/API application perspective (and not a big data/ETL perspective).
You like to work on a variety of projects - at this job, you’ll be developing a complex backend API infra, a reactive streaming architecture and a cloud-native, highly available API for our customers.
You have:
Experienced in any JVM based language.
Have some experience in NoSQL and architecting APIs
Strong verbal and written communication skills and the ability to work well cross-functionally.
We offer:
You to be a part of a small, but a super capable team.
The opportunity to work closely with founders to define, scope, estimate and plan various aspects of the product. Being one of the first hires at Swift, you will be involved in both high and low-level decision making. This means a lot of ownership, which we cultivate by having a flat structure.
Competitive salary and stock options from a high-growth company.
