Job description

  • Build and ship backend features in Java/Spring, with growing exposure to the full stack as you take on more scope across modern frontend technologies (TypeScript, React 19) and legacy components
  • Work directly with AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude/Codex, our internal AI portal, and MCP) as a daily part of how you build-experimenting and finding new ways to save real time
  • Write automated tests, take part in code reviews, and contribute to task estimation and technical planning
  • Navigate an existing, living codebase-learning what to reuse, where rebuilding makes sense, and how to hold the line against tech debt
  • Take increasing ownership of features as you build trust-this is a growth track designed to transition you into a full end-to-end owner
  • Work closely with senior engineers and teams, picking up the critical thinking and judgment calls that come with full system ownership

Requirements

Wrike is building a new generation of engineers who pair solid Java fundamentals with genuine, hands-on AI fluency. This isn't a fixed lane for a 10-year veteran. It's a newly created talent track for someone who already builds with AI as a natural part of their job- and wants to grow into full end-to-end ownership over the next year or two, with a clear, supported path to do so. We evaluate this role on what you've actually built and how you work, not on years of tenure. If you have a strong Java base and real curiosity about AI-assisted development- not just awareness of it- this is worth a conversation., * A solid foundation in backend engineering, with comfort in Java (21), Spring, REST APIs, and SQL, TypeScript, React 19

  • Genuine curiosity about and active use of AI coding tools- not avoidance, not just "awareness," but a desire to push past the learning curve
  • Evidence of things you've actually built and shipped, even at a smaller scope- we care more about what you've done than your title or years of experience
  • A growth mindset: comfortable navigating a non-trivial codebase and taking on more ambiguity as you prove you can handle it
  • Good collaboration instincts- you ask questions, raise issues early, and work seamlessly within a cross-functional team

Our stack:

  • Java (21), Spring, REST APIs, SQL
  • TypeScript, React 19, Redux, Dart
  • PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ
  • Unit/integration testing, Java web stack
  • AI tooling: Cursor, Claude/Codex, Zencoder, internal AI portal, internal MCP
