- You say this is a personal project. I am sure you were free to chose the technology.
I ask, because Java and Mvn are good tools for some requirements, but not necessarily the most easy, elegant or efficient ones... it depends.What exactly is the use of your annotation processors in Java? Is it learning Java (then you are doomed), or building something like... a text editor, a compiler, a game etc.?

- I ask, because Java, annotations and Mvn are good tools for some requirements, but not necessarily the most easy, elegant or efficient ones for everything... it depends.

- Can you avoid annotations altogether? They are again good for certain use cases, but bring a heavy debt: the code is much less readable, as the implementation of the annotation is... somewhere else. They are not good for themselves; at most a necessary evil: avoid if you can.
- Same goes for Maven: the version management is fantastic; but if you don't need that, you'll be better off with a more transparent build system, where YOU understand exactly what it does.

You say this is a personal project. I am sure you were free to chose the technology. What is your project about and why exactly did you Java+Mvn? What else did you consider?These are very good tools for special few things. There are other, less masoquistic tools out there, that might not fulfill your requirements though.
