We are seeking an experienced Senior Software Developer to join our team in designing and developing a robust Core Platform, driving the advancement of our Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) offering, and supporting the migration of legacy systems to the new architecture.
As a key member of our team, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the platform and services that support a suite of mobile and web applications. Your responsibilities will include designing and developing robust, scalable, and secure backend systems, providing technical expertise across multiple squads as well as defining and enforcing the standards that ensure their integrity and compliance.
This role requires close collaboration with multiple stakeholders, making strong communication and proactive engagement essential. You should be able to articulate and support your recommendations with sound reasoning, grounded in engineering best practices and factual analysis, while maintaining an open, fair, and, where necessary, assertive approach.

  • Design actionable development tasks that drive iterative progress for product delivery and the team.
  • Implement and advocate for domain-driven design principles to create a well-structured and maintainable codebase.
  • Build and manage microservices architecture, ensuring services are scalable, reliable, and secure.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including frontend (mobile & web) developers, product managers, QA, solution architects, infrastructure, and DevOps, to deliver high-quality software solutions.
  • Write clean, maintainable, and efficient code following best practices and coding standards.
  • Perform code reviews, provide constructive feedback, and mentor other developers.
  • Continuously improve existing systems by identifying and implementing performance optimizations and refactoring opportunities.
  • Foster ensuring robust testing and validation of software through unit testing, integration testing, contract testing, and automated testing frameworks.
  • Participate in agile development processes, including sprint planning, stand-ups, and retrospectives.
  • Stay up to date with emerging technologies and industry trends and apply this knowledge to enhance our development practices.

What We're Looking For

Required Skills and Experience
  • Minimum of 6 years proven experience as a backend developer with a strong focus on Java development with Spring (e.g., Boot, Cloud, Framework).
  • Solid understanding of cloud-native development and experience with cloud platforms such as Google Cloud (preferable), AWS, or Azure.
  • Expertise in domain-driven design (DDD) and its application in software development.
  • Strong knowledge of microservices architecture and experience in building and deploying microservices.
  • Proficiency in RESTful API design and development.
  • Experience with event-driven architecture and messaging systems (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ, Google Pub/Sub ).
  • Experience with containerization technologies such as Docker and orchestration tools like Kubernetes.
  • Familiarity with database technologies, both SQL and NoSQL (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB).
  • Understanding of solid engineering principles, including SOLID, DRY, and KISS.
  • Strong knowledge of Software & Cloud design patterns, especially Strangler Fig.

  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently and as part of a team.
