REMOTE-Principal Node.js & Java Developer Legacy Code Migration
About the position
Looking for Super Senior/Extremely experienced Node.js & Java Developer with 20+ years of experience specializing in legacy system modernization and migration. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in Java, Node.js, microservices, cloud computing, and database modernization, with a strong background in migrating monolithic applications to modern architectures. This role requires technical leadership, hands-on expertise, and strategic planning to ensure seamless transitions from legacy systems to scalable, high-performance solutions.
Responsibilities
• Assess, analyze, and design modernization strategies for legacy NodeJS/Java applications, monolithic architectures, and outdated database systems.
• Lead the migration of legacy applications to microservices-based, cloud-native architectures using Java (Spring Boot, Hibernate) and Node.js (Express/Nest.js).
• Refactor and rewrite legacy codebases to improve scalability, maintainability, and performance.
• Implement automated migration tools, API gateways, and middleware solutions to ensure smooth integration with modern applications.
• Collaborate with business stakeholders, architects, and DevOps teams to define migration roadmaps, ensuring minimal disruption to business operations.
• Enhance legacy systems with event-driven architectures (Pulsar/Kafka) for real-time processing.
• Implement cloud-native solutions on AWS leveraging containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and serverless technologies.
• Establish CI/CD pipelines, automated testing frameworks, and DevSecOps practices to accelerate modernization efforts.
• Provide technical leadership, mentoring, and best practice guidance to development teams during the transition.
Requirements
• 20+ years of experience in software development with a strong background in Java (Spring, Hibernate, JPA) and Node.js (Express.js, Nest.js).
• Expertise in legacy system migrations, including monolithic-to-microservices transformations.
• Strong knowledge of cloud computing platforms (AWS, Azure) and serverless computing.
• Hands-on experience in database modernization, schema refactoring, and ETL pipeline development.
• Experience with API modernization, including RESTful APIs, GraphQL, and event-driven patterns.
• Deep understanding of DevOps, CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD), and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, CloudFormation).
• Strong experience in performance optimization, security hardening, and system reliability improvements.
• Proven ability to reverse-engineer complex legacy systems, understand business logic, and design modern replacements.
• Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and stakeholder management skills.
Nice-to-haves
• Experience with AI-driven code refactoring tools and automated legacy code analysis.
• Experience in Cold Storage & Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) & Automated Retrievals and Storage systems.
• Supply chain logistics, inventory management, and warehouse automation.
• Experience with low-code/no-code platforms for rapid modernization.
• Contributions to open-source modernization frameworks or cloud migration tools.
Benefits
• Medical/Dental/Vision/Life Insurance
