## Description

Als Senior Java Backend Engineer Utrecht werk je aan de core van het platform: een configuratiegedreven workflow- en dataplatform waarop andere teams hun domeinen bouwen. Je ontwikkelt software tooling en services die direct worden gebruikt door interne engineering teams om sneller, veiliger en consistenter te kunnen bouwen.

Je werkt aan vraagstukken rondom flexibiliteit, schaalbaarheid en betrouwbaarheid. Denk aan hoe domeinlogica via configuratie wordt ingericht, hoe mappings correct blijven onder groei en hoe je een platform bouwt dat door meerdere teams tegelijk gebruikt kan worden zonder complexiteit te laten exploderen.

Daarnaast werk je nauw samen met andere teams binnen de organisatie. Je helpt hen bij het modelleren van hun use cases, begrijpt wat ze nodig hebben en vertaalt dit naar generieke oplossingen binnen het platform.
