  • Develop: Build scalable services using Java, Kotlin, and Spring Boot .
  • Optimize: Manage high-concurrency data with RabbitMQ and Redis .
  • Innovate: Integrate AI-powered tools (Cursor, Copilot) into your workflow to accelerate delivery and maintain architectural integrity.
  • Scale: Take ownership of core platform components like wallets, payments, and integrations.

Requirements

  • Senior Expertise: Deep professional experience with Java/Kotlin and Spring Boot.
  • System Design: Strong understanding of Microservices, SQL optimization (PostgreSQL/MySQL), and message brokers.
  • AI Fluency: You are already using AI assistants to write better code, faster.
  • Location: You are based in or willing to commute to Frankfurt at least 3 days a week.
