IT Technical Expert (Java, API, and Middleware)

Job Description

IT Technical Expert (Java, API, and Middleware)

Work Location: IOI City, Putrajaya

Work Arrangement: Fully onsite, Monday to Friday (5 days a week)

About The Role

We are seeking a Technical Expert with strong proficiency across multiple technologies to provide consulting, guidance, and technical leadership for enterprise systems. This role supports cross-functional projects — including migrations and modernization initiatives — working closely with IT teams in Kuala Lumpur and Europe.

This is not an application development role, but rather a consulting and technical expertise position focused on establishing standards, resolving complex issues, and enhancing performance across multiple platforms.

Key Responsibilities

• Define and enforce technical standards and best practices, including API governance, Java frameworks, and middleware configurations.
• Provide expert-level performance tuning for Java applications and middleware platforms (e.g., memory management, garbage collection strategies), leveraging tools such as Dynatrace for performance analysis and recommendations.
• Train and mentor development teams on technical best practices and support code reviews, particularly during Java version upgrades and obsolescence management.
• Act as the top-tier escalation point for complex technical issues related to API management, Java performance, and application server optimization.
• Collaborate with global teams on large-scale or complex projects, ensuring alignment with architectural and operational standards.
  
  

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong expertise in Java and related frameworks (Spring, Spring Batch, Hibernate, Spring Boot).
• Hands-on experience with API management platforms (knowledge of WSO2 preferred) and familiarity with OAuth and OpenID security protocols.
• Experience with application servers such as IBM WebSphere and JBoss EAP.
• Proficiency in DevOps tools: Jenkins, Ansible, Docker, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure-as-Code tools (Terraform, Helm).
• Familiarity with cloud-native development; exposure to Azure Cloud or AWS is an advantage.
• Knowledge of Python is a plus.
  
  

Ideal Profile

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to address complex technical challenges.
• Excellent communication and collaboration abilities to work across regional teams.
• Proactive and structured approach to driving standards, knowledge sharing, and technical excellence.
