Java Integration Developer

Position Overview

Hands-on engineer responsible for building and configuring the Red Hat-hosted HIP layer — Apache Camel microservices on Spring Boot, and API exposure/management through 3Scale. Implements the core integration logic that connects source systems into the messaging/event backbone and exposes services externally.

Key Responsibilities

• Build Camel routes/microservices on Spring Boot implementing the integration flows defined in the LLDs
• Implement Enterprise Integration Patterns (content-based routing, aggregation, splitting, transformation) within Camel
• Configure and expose APIs through 3Scale — API definitions, security policies (API keys/OAuth), rate limiting, and versioning
• Containerize and deploy services to OpenShift, including configuration of health checks, scaling, and resilience (circuit breakers, timeouts)
• Implement logging, tracing, and monitoring for Camel services (e.g., via Hawtio, Prometheus/Grafana, distributed tracing)
• Implement error handling, retry, and compensation logic within Camel routes per design standards
• Support integration testing, including contract testing of exposed APIs and route-level unit/integration tests
• Collaborate with the Kafka and Azure engineers on message contracts at the HIP boundary

Mandatory Skills / Experience Required

• 4+ years hands-on experience with Apache Camel (Java DSL preferred) and Spring Boot microservices
• Experience deploying and operating services on Red Hat OpenShift (or Kubernetes equivalent)
• Hands-on experience with 3Scale API Management — API definition, policy configuration, security, developer portal basics
• Strong Java development skills, including unit/integration testing frameworks (JUnit, Camel Test Kit)
• Understanding of resilience patterns (circuit breaker, retry, timeout — e.g., via Resilience4j or Camel's own error handlers)
• Familiarity with Kafka connectivity from Camel (camel-kafka component) since HIP sits upstream of the messaging layer
