Key Responsibilities

• Write Java code at story/user‑story level (with oversight) and perform unit testing of your modules. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
• Use SQL / BigQuery (or equivalent) and perform basic database modeling and data definitions. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
• Implement designs and modules provided by senior engineers; fix issues and bugs as assigned. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
• Work potentially with UI / front‑end frameworks (like React.js) when needed, alongside backend/database work. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
• Assist in environment builds, deployments, and collaborate with the team on development tasks. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}

Skills & Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) in Computer Science / Engineering or related field (assumed for freshers / entry‑level).
• Basic knowledge of SQL/BigQuery and fundamentals of database modeling. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}
• Familiarity with Java and writing modular backend code, including unit testing. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}
• Willingness to learn, follow guidance, and grow under mentorship in backend & database design.
• Any exposure to front‑end (React.js) is beneficial but may be optional depending on assignment. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}

Compensation & Benefits (What to Expect)

The job posting does not disclose salary details publicly. Given this is an entry‑level / early career role (0–2 years), expect the compensation to align with junior‑level backend / data‑engineering roles in Bangalore — depending on skills, interviews and negotiation.

Other potential benefits: opportunity to work on backend + data‑modeling tasks, learn under senior mentors, build foundational skills in Java, SQL and database design — which can be valuable for long‑term growth.

How to Prepare — Roadmap for Applicants

1. Strengthen fundamentals in SQL / relational databases — practice writing queries, understanding normalization, and basic schema design.
2. Brush up on Java backend programming — classes, collections, exception handling, basic OOP principles and unit testing (JUnit or equivalent).
3. Build small projects integrating database + backend — e.g. a simple CRUD service using Java and PostgreSQL/MySQL or BigQuery. This gives hands‑on database & coding exposure.
4. Get comfortable reading and understanding database schema design/principles — relationships, indexes, basic modeling, schema evolution.
5. Optionally, learn basics of front-end (React.js) or full‑stack exposure if you want to support UI tasks in future roles (since listing mentions UI frameworks). :contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11}
6. Prepare to talk about any academic or internship projects involving databases or backend code — this helps for freshers/entry‑level roles.
