Job description

We are looking for a highly experienced and proactive Senior Backend Developer to lead the design, development, and maintenance of scalable and robust backend systems using Java, Spring Boot, Spring Data JPA, and Hibernate. In this role, you will architect and optimize complex Oracle SQL queries and database schemas, and build high-performance RESTful APIs and microservices. You will leverage Redis for caching strategies to enhance application responsiveness and collaborate closely with frontend teams, with optional contributions to Angular and Node.js development. As a senior team member, you will drive best practices in code quality, security, and performance, actively participate in architectural discussions, and provide technical leadership and mentorship. Proficiency with Git and GitHub is essential, including code reviews and CI/CD workflows, and experience with GitHub Copilot is a plus. You will also play a key role in diagnosing and resolving production issues, contributing to root cause analysis. This role will function in a hybrid onsite model in Fort Worth, TX.
