About the Role
Data Platform Administrator responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining scalable microservice-based data platforms using modern Java and Angular frameworks in a hybrid work model.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and administer secure and scalable data platform solutions that leverage Springboot microservices and Java 21 to support critical enterprise applications in a hybrid work environment.
- Implement and maintain robust microservice architectures that enable reliable data ingestion, processing, and distribution, while ensuring optimal performance and resource utilization across the platform.
- Develop and enhance Angular 13 to 18-based user interfaces that provide intuitive access to data platform capabilities and monitoring tools for technology and business stakeholders.
- Configure and manage API integrations, including Claude API, to support intelligent data services, automation capabilities, and enhanced analytics workflows for internal and external consumers.
- Optimize Core Java components and backend services to ensure consistent throughput, low latency, and high availability for day shift operations without requiring travel.
- Monitor platform health using observability tools and logs, proactively identifying incidents and performance bottlenecks, and driving timely remediation actions to protect service continuity.
- Maintain strong security controls across services by applying authentication, authorization, encryption, and data protection practices aligned with organizational policies and regulatory expectations.
- Collaborate with application development and business teams to translate functional and non-functional requirements into practical platform configurations and deployment strategies that support long-term scalability.
- Coordinate release activities for microservices and front-end components by managing configurations, validating deployment pipelines, and ensuring smooth transitions across environments from development to production.
- Create and maintain detailed documentation for platform configurations, service dependencies, operational procedures, and troubleshooting guides to support consistent day-to-day operations.
- Support incident and problem management processes by performing root cause analysis on recurring data platform issues and recommending targeted improvements to architecture and configuration.
- Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives by evaluating emerging platform tools, Java and Angular features, and API capabilities that can improve reliability, efficiency, and user experience.
- Engage with asset and wealth management domain experts, when applicable, to align platform data structures, integrations, and reporting capabilities with regulatory needs and investor-facing service expectations.
Requirements & Tech Stack
- Advanced experience in Springboot microservices to architect resilient services, configure data access patterns, and ensure secure communication across platform components.
- Strong skills in Angular 13 to 18 to build maintainable and modular front-end applications that enable clear observability and configuration interfaces for platform administration.
- Deep proficiency in Java 21 and Core Java concepts to design performant data services, manage concurrency, and handle resource-intensive workloads with stability.
- Practical experience integrating Claude API to enable intelligent automation and conversational capabilities that enhance platform support and data interaction journeys.
- Ability to operate effectively in hybrid work models and day shift schedules while coordinating with distributed teams through structured communication and documentation practices.
Qualifications
- Exposure to asset and wealth management domains as a beneficial asset in interpreting data flows, client reporting requirements, and regulatory considerations for platform solutions.
Certifications
- Preferred certifications include Oracle Certified Professional: Java SE, Spring Professional certification, and cloud platform administrator or architect credentials.
