Position : Senior Software Engineer — App Modernization We're building an AI-powered application modernization practice for major global financial institutions.
The work: take legacy enterprise applications — monoliths, on-prem deployments, decade-old frameworks — and move them to modern platforms (Kubernetes, cloud-native, containerized). Hundreds of applications, each with its own stack, quirks, and business constraints. Most happen to be Java, but not all. What You Will Do
▫️ Assess legacy applications end-to-end: architecture, dependencies, infrastructure, risk — using AI-assisted analysis tools
▫️Decide migration strategy for each app based on its characteristics, constraints, and business value
▫️Execute the full modernization: framework upgrades, dependency migration, containerization, CI/CD pipeline setup
▫️Deploy to target platforms — cloud services, or optimized on-prem — whatever makes sense for the app
▫️Shape the modernization practice itself: contribute patterns, templates, and lessons learned that make the next migration faster
▫️Collaborate with application teams who own the legacy systems Required
▫️Strong Java/Spring expertise— the majority of the target portfolio is Java (7+years)
