This role is ideal for someone who thrives in complex domains, enjoys solving system-level challenges, and collaborates closely with architects and engineering teams.

 

✅ As a Senior Software Engineer, you will:

• Design, build, and maintain backend services and components using Java (preferably version 21 at least) and Spring (Boot, Cloud), ensuring high performance, reliability, and scalability.
• Develop reusable libraries and cross-cutting components to support multiple engineering teams and promote consistent standards across the organisation.
• Apply resilience patterns (circuit breaker, retries, fallbacks, bulkheads, caching, idempotency, etc.) to ensure robust behaviour in distributed environments.
• Drive quality through automated testing, clean code principles, and effective code reviews.
• Contribute to the design and optimisation of distributed systems, including asynchronous processing, event-driven architectures, and transactional workflows.
• Collaborate with DevOps and SRE teams on observability, performance optimisation, build-time/run-time tooling, and cloud-native best practices.
• Mentor and support other engineers, helping raise engineering standards and knowledge across the team.

 

Experience:

• Strong professional experience developing backend systems in Java (at least 10 years), with deep knowledge of Spring (Spring Boot + commonly used Spring modules).
• Experience developing and maintaining shared libraries, tools, or frameworks used across multiple teams.
• Demonstrated experience applying resilience and reliability patterns in production environments.

 

Education:

• Degree in: Systems/Computing Engineering

 

✅Technical Skills:

• Good understanding of software design principles.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to reason about system-level interactions.
• Nices to have:
• Knowledge of JVM performance tuning and profiling tools.
• Familiarity with CI/CD, cloud platforms (AWS), and container orchestration (Kubernetes).
• Experience with build tooling (Gradle)
