About the Role

We’re looking for a Senior or Lead Developer to help build and evolve modern, cloud-native applications that support critical parts of our platform. You’ll work on backend services using Java, Spring Boot, Node.js/Typescript, and AWS — and be part of a team that focuses on building things the right way and delivering code that holds up in production.

It’s a hands-on role focused on delivering quality software and guiding design decisions without stepping away from coding. You’ll be part of a modernization journey, building scalable services that work alongside and enhance the existing application, helping shape how we extend and evolve our platform over time.

What You’ll Do

Contribute to a modernization effort by adding new services that work alongside the current system to improve performance, scalability, and maintainability Design, develop, and maintain scalable backend services in Java (Spring Boot) and Node.js/TypeScript Build and integrate containerized services in a cloud-native environment using AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes Work closely with senior engineers and architects on design, performance, and reliability Write clean, testable code and support quality through solid unit tests and improved service observability Review code, suggest improvements, and help raise the bar for engineering quality Participate in agile development processes and collaborate effectively across teams

What We’re Looking For

5+ years of experience in software development Strong hands-on experience with Java (Spring Boot) and Node.js/TypeScript Strong English communication skills, both written and spoken Solid understanding of AWS and experience working in cloud-native environments Strong experience building distributed systems using RESTful APIs, Microservices, and Event-Driven communication models Experience with relational databases (Oracle) and familiarity with NoSQL (e.g., Redis, MongoDB) Familiarity with CI/CD workflows, Git, and tools like Jenkins Clean code mindset and unit testing discipline Experience working in Agile teams and understands how they operate, from ceremonies to collaboration

Bonus points for:

Some background with PL/SQL, particularly for maintaining stored procedures and integrating with Oracle-based systems Exposure with Kafka for distributed messaging and Apache Camel for building integration pipelines and routing logic Experience with frontend technologies such as Angular, Web Components, or Micro Frontend architectures Comfortable working with Infrastructure as Code using Terraform

Why This Role Stands Out

You’ll be part of a modernization journey — building scalable services that work alongside and enhance the existing application You’ll have the space to focus, deliver, and grow as a technical contributor You’ll get exposure to architecture, DevOps, and cloud-native practices — not just application logic You’ll be part of a team that values clarity, quality, and continuous improvement

What Success Looks Like

You’ve delivered clean, scalable services that integrate smoothly with the existing platform You’ve helped modernize critical parts of the system while maintaining stability and performance You’ve raised the quality bar through thoughtful code reviews, testing, and engineering practices You’ve found bottlenecks, fixed what matters, and helped the team build better without overcomplicating things
