Senior Java Engineer

As a Senior Java Software Engineer, you will design, build and ship backend services that meet real customer needs - owning your work from analysis through to production. You will also help set the technical bar for those around you. In a nutshell, you'll be building and growing in a place where we truly love working, and we think you will too.

YOU WILL

» Design, develop, test and debug backend services and APIs using Java and Spring Boot.

» Own features end to end across the software lifecycle: analysis, design, implementation, integration testing and quality assurance.

» Translate client requirements into working software - delivering enhancements, resolving defects, and questioning the requirement when something doesn't add up.

» Produce designs that are simple to change, so new requirements can be absorbed quickly and safely.

» Write and maintain automated tests (unit and integration) as a normal part of delivery, not an afterthought.

» Write clear technical documentation, design notes and user guides on Confluence.

» Review your colleagues' code, mentor less experienced engineers, and raise the quality bar of the team.

» Participate in daily, weekly and monthly team ceremonies and planning.

» Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or Computer Engineering.

» Minimum 5 years of experience in Java development.

» Strong experience in Java (17 or later) and the Spring Boot ecosystem.

» Solid grounding in OOP, clean code principles and RESTful API design and versioning.

» Strong SQL and relational database skills, ideally PostgreSQL, including schema design and query performance.

» Practical experience building and running services in microservices or distributed architecture.

» Experience with automated testing frameworks (JUnit, Mockito, or similar).

» Comfortable with Git, code review workflows and Agile delivery.

» Secure coding awareness and an understanding of common application security risks.

» Delivery-oriented, able to manage several parallel threads of work, and comfortable with ambiguity.

» Good verbal and written English communication skills.

» NICE TO HAVE

» Event-driven architecture and messaging platforms (Kafka, RabbitMQ).

» Containers and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes or OpenShift).

» Identity and access management standards (OAuth2 / OpenID Connect, Keycloak).

» Observability tooling (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry).
