 * Quick to, As a Java Backend Engineer you build the core of the platform, with Java 21 and Spring Boot as the foundation and Rust where performance and safety call for it. You design and develop APIs, integrations and platform components, and you make the architecture decisions that determine whether the platform can scale reliably.

The real challenge is reliability and security at scale. How do you connect disparate systems without losing the meaning of the data? How do you guarantee authorisation and privacy on every exchange? How do you keep everything correct and available as the number of connected parties grows? These are exactly the questions you solve here.

You are more than a builder. You help set the technical direction, establish standards, share knowledge and raise the engineering level. You have plenty of freedom to decide how things get built.
