• No two applications are the same: Through cutting-edge dynamic systems, our customers can create, refine, and deploy applications as quickly as their business needs change.

You won’t just be building REST APIs– you’ll be designing scalable systems, safeguarding sensitive data, and solving tough distributed systems problems that keep global operations running seamlessly.

What You’ll Do:

Build and Elevate Our Core Platform:

• Design, develop, and maintain backend services using Java (Java 11+), Spring Boot, and Hibernate.
• Architect RESTful APIs and microservices that deliver dynamic experiences to our mobile and web platforms.
• Optimize relational database designs, indexes, and query performance to handle large multi-tenant data loads.

Drive Quality, Security, and Scalability:

• Contribute to strategic architectural decisions, focusing on scalability, security, and maintainability.
• Implement secure coding practices, identify and remediate vulnerabilities, and tune JVM performance.
• Improve deployment pipelines with GitLab CI/CD and robust automated testing.

Collaborate and Lead:

• Troubleshoot complex production issues, perform root cause analysis, and deliver lasting solutions.
• Partner with frontend, mobile, and infrastructure teams to ensure cohesive end-to-end experiences.
• Be open to taking on generalist responsibilities—whether it’s infrastructure, frontend troubleshooting, or mentoring peers.

What We’re Looking For:

Must-Have Qualifications:

• 10+ years of experience in backend software development with a focus on Java.
• Expertise in enterprise Java (Java 11+), including frameworks like Spring Boot, Spring MVC, and Hibernate.
• Strong knowledge of object-oriented programming, design patterns, concurrency, and memory management with understanding of OOP, SOLID, DRY principles.
• Hands-on experience with RESTful API development and microservices architectures.
• Proficiency in relational databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) with experience in schema design and performance tuning.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS preferred, or Azure/GCP) and containerization technologies.
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines.
