Senior Backend Software Engineer
About the Role
We're looking for senior backend engineers with deep Java and Spring expertise to help modernize our platform.
The team already runs on Java 21 and is now upgrading frameworks and components across the stack, including moving from Dropwizard to Spring Boot and breaking parts of a monolith into microservices.
Once the migrations are done, you'll move into ongoing product development, so this is a long‐term role, not a short project.
We need engineers who can lead technical work on their own and bring real depth in Java, not just familiarity with it.
Key Responsibilities
Lead major-version upgrades and framework migrations (e.g., Dropwizard to Spring Boot) from planning through delivery
Modernize legacy and monolithic components and help move them toward a microservices architecture
Design, build, and maintain Java microservices with Spring Boot and the wider Spring ecosystem
Containerize and deploy services with Docker and Kubernetes
Work with SQL Server to design, optimize, and maintain application data
Build and maintain strong automated test coverage so migrations and new features ship safely
Contribute to new product development once migration work is complete
Mentor peers and raise the team's technical standards through code reviews and design discussions
Required Qualifications
6+ years of professional backend development experience, mostly in Java
Deep, hands‐on expertise with Spring (Spring Boot, Spring Core, Spring Data, etc.)
Proven experience leading major-version upgrades and framework migrations on your own
Experience building and supporting Java microservices in production
Working knowledge of SQL Server
Hands‐on experience with Docker and Kubernetes




Strong test automation skills (e.g., JUnit, Mockito, integration testing)
Nice to Have
Experience with Dropwizard
Experience modernizing monolithic applications into microservices
Experience with recent Java versions (Java *****)
