Job Summary: Contract Software Engineer (Migration & Platform Execution)
Redsky is the high-scale engine powering Client’s digital product data—pricing, promotions, and fulfillment. We are looking for a highly skilled Contract Software Engineer to provide immediate engineering capacity for critical platform modernization efforts.
You will be a key contributor to the team, focusing on the "heavy lifting"of migrating our high-scale Kotlin services into Client’s standardized platform environment. This includes owning the transition of repositories between GitHub hosts, rebuilding CI/CD pipelines, and modernizing our observability by migrating Micronaut applications from Zipkin to OpenTelemetry (OTel).
Core Responsibilities (The Execution Mission)

Platform Migration: Execute the technical transition of mission-critical services from legacy/custom GCP/Kubernetes configurations to the standardized Client's Application Platform in GCP, ensuring zero-downtime deployments.
GitHub Migration: Own the end-to-end migration of repositories between Clients internal Git to GitHub, ensuring all dependencies, permissions, and integrations are maintained.
Observability Upgrade: Lead the implementation of OpenTelemetry (OTel) for Micronaut applications, transitioning away from legacy Zipkin tracing to modern standards.
Feature & Performance Work: Contribute to the development and tuning of high-traffic Kotlin services, ensuring sub-millisecond response times and high reliability.
System Maintenance: Use Grafana and Kibana to monitor service health during migrations, proactively troubleshooting any bottlenecks or latency spikes.
Data Execution: Work with high-performance Key-Value stores (Valkey/Redis) to ensure data models are optimized and attributed correctly.

Technical Execution Stack

Core Languages: Expert-level Kotlin (preferred) or Java. Hands-on experience with Micronaut or Spring Boot.
Observability: Deep experience with OpenTelemetry (OTel) and Zipkin. Proficiency in Grafana and Kibana.
Cloud & CI/CD: Strong experience with GCP and Kubernetes. Proven ability to build/modify pipelines using standard CI/CD tools and GitHub-based workflows.
Data Stores: Proficiency with Valkey or Redis.
Nice-to-Have: Experience with RocksDB or similar persistent key-value storage.
Testing: Experience with Kotest or similar automated testing frameworks to ensure a high-quality "definition of done."

Success Profile

Execution Focused: You enjoy the "migration"work—moving repos, fixing pipelines, and modernizing libraries.
Independent Contributor: You can navigate complex technical tasks with minimal oversight and provide high-quality, production-ready code.
Migration Experience: You have a clear "definition of done"for migrations, focusing on validation, observability parity, and zero-downtime deployments.
Standardization Mindset: You understand the value of moving from custom/legacy setups to enterprise-standard platforms and tools.
