Responsibilities

• Design and implement DDD-based microservices, mastering service decomposition (Bounded Context), API gateways (Kong/Ocelot), and service mesh (Istio/Linkerd)

• Solve microservices challenges: distributed transactions (Saga pattern), cross-service monitoring (APM tools), and data consistency

• Establish governance standards (contract testing, versioning strategies)

• Lead data silo consolidation via event-driven architecture (EDA), data lakes (Delta Lake/Iceberg), or master data management (MDM)

• Design real-time data pipelines (CDC tools like Debezium)

• Architect solutions for industry-specific needs (e.g., low-latency flight tracking, ACARS data parsing) and modernized legacy systems (e.g., IBM Mainframe → cloud-native microservices)

• Perform other ad-hoc projects and tasks assigned

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree or above in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related fields

• At least 5 years’ experience in designing distributed systems with 2 years’ end-to-end microservices implementations

• Expertise in Spring Cloud/Alibaba, Kubernetes, Docker, and microservices patterns (service discovery, circuit breaking/Hystrix/Sentinel)

• Deep understanding of scalability, fault tolerance, and observability

• Aviation/transportation/logistics domain experience (e.g., FOC systems, crew scheduling, MRO platforms) is strongly preferred

• Proven track record dismantling data silos (ESB, data fabrics, or API-led integration) is strongly preferred

• Familiarity with aviation protocols (ARINC 429, AFDX) or standards (IATA NDX) is strongly preferred

• Awareness of trends (AI-Native architecture, low-code integration) and cloud-native tech (Serverless, Service Mesh)

• Certifications in AWS/Azure Microservices Architect, CKA/CKAD is a plus

• Tech community impact (open-source contributions, blogs, patents) is a plus

• Good command of spoken and written English and Chinese (including Putonghua)
