Senior Java Developer
We are looking for a Senior Java backend engineer to work on a platform that will allow us to develop and integrate all existing and new applications into one core.
Essential functions
Define the target architecture for the new Java services: service boundaries, API contracts, data storage (MongoDB, Redis) and how they deploy on GKE.

Design and implement core REST APIs, and lead by example through hands-on coding and code reviews.
Set engineering standards for code quality, branching, testing and SonarQube quality gates.
Set up the delivery pipeline with the platform team so code ships reliably to GKE through Jenkins, Argo CD and Kustomize.
Act as the main technical contact for client stakeholders: turn business needs into technical plans and report progress and risks.
Qualifications
Strong commercial Java backend experience, including designing and building REST APIs (Maven-based builds).
Has designed a project's architecture from scratch: defined service boundaries, data stores and deployment approach, and documented the trade-offs.
Built and organized an engineering team from scratch: defined roles, onboarding, working agreements and delivery cadence.
Can explain technical decisions and trade-offs clearly to client stakeholders and engineers, in writing and in meetings.
Excellent Communication Skills
Agile delivery tracking in Jira.
Bachelor’s Degree in Compute Science or similar major.
Would be a plus
