It works closely with a diverse team of engineers and service owners from across the company. **What You'll Do** * Design, build, and maintain backend services and RESTful APIs using Java and Spring Boot. * Model, persist, and query data using JPA/Hibernate against relational databases (MariaDB, MySQL, Oracle, or similar), including writing efficient SQL. * Build and integrate event-driven components using pub/sub messaging and queues (e.g.,Kafka, RabbitMQ, or cloud-native equivalents) to support asynchronous, decoupled workflows. * Contribute to front-end features, primarily in React, when a task calls for full-stack ownership. * Participate in the full Agile/Scrum lifecycle: sprint planning, daily stand-ups, backlog refinement, retrospectives, and demos. * Write clean, well-tested, maintainable code; review teammates' pull requests and respond to feedback on your own. * Debug and resolve production issues, including performance, reliability, and scalability problems. * Collaborate with product managers, designers, and other engineers to translate requirements into technical solutions. * Contribute to technical design discussions and document your approach for moderately complex components. * Mentor junior engineers and share knowledge through code reviews, pairing, and informal tech talks. **Who You Are:** * Your day will typically start with checking messages and PR notifications, followed by a daily stand-up with your team. Most engineers split their time between reviewing open pull requests, focused coding on features or bug fixes, and testing changes locally. * Afternoons often include sprint planning, design discussions, or syncs with product and design partners. Throughout the week, you'll move between independent implementation work and collaborative problem-solving with your team. **Qualifications of the Role:** * A minimum of 3 years of professional software engineering experience, with a focus on backend development. * Comfortable navigating systems with CLI or terminal commands. * Strong proficiency in **modern** Java (21+) and the Spring / Spring Boot framework. * Experience with JPA/Hibernate and relational databases (MariaDB, MySQL, Oracle, or similar). * Solid understanding of RESTful API design and best practices. * Familiarity with event-driven architecture and messaging systems (pub/sub, queues). * Working knowledge of Agile/Scrum practices. * Some experience with front-end web development, ideally React. * Comfort with Git, code review workflows, and automated testing (unit and integration). * Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently on well-scoped problems. * Clear written and verbal communication with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. **Nice to Have:** * Experience with PHP or Go. * Hands-on use of AI-assisted development tools such as Cursor or Claude Code. * Exposure to CI/CD pipelines, Docker, or Kubernetes. * Experience with a cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP). **Education:** * Bachelor’s degree or international equivalent in Computer Science, Info Systems, Software, Electrical or Electronics Engineering, or comparable field of study, and/or equivalent work experience.
