Descripción del empleo

Senior Full Stack Engineer – Java / Quarkus / React

Start Date: September 1, 2026

Level: Senior

Focus: Full Stack Engineering with strong Java Backend expertise

About the Project

We are building an enterprise-grade Data Observability Platform designed to help manufacturing and financial-services organizations detect schema drift across heterogeneous IT systems in near real time.

The platform connects to on-premises databases, data lakes, and file-based sources through lightweight agents, automatically detects structural and data-level changes, and provides impact analysis, business glossary, data governance, and observability workflows through a modern web console.

The product is currently moving from prototype to active customer Proof-of-Concept (PoC) deployments.

We are looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer who can help accelerate customer adoption by translating customer requirements into production-ready features quickly and reliably.

This role is ideal for a full stack engineer with strong Java backend expertise who enjoys working across backend, frontend, databases, testing, integrations, and customer-specific technical requirements.

What You’ll Do

• Work directly with the CTO and product team to translate customer and Sales requirements into production-ready features.
• Own features end-to-end across Java backend, database, APIs, and React/Next.js frontend.
• Build and extend REST APIs and backend services using Java and Quarkus.
• Develop modern frontend experiences using React, TypeScript, and Next.js.
• Design database schemas, migrations, indexes, and optimized queries in PostgreSQL.
• Implement customer‑specific integrations, connectors, authentication, notification routing, and deployment configurations.
• Participate in code reviews with a strong focus on:
• Security
• Performance
• Test coverage
• Database migration safety
• Maintainability
• Production readiness
• Design and implement unit and integration tests using real infrastructure where appropriate.
• Extend existing Quarkus integration tests and k6 performance tests.
• Identify opportunities to replace manual validation with reliable test automation.
• Work with event‑driven architectures using Kafka‑compatible technologies such as Redpanda.
• Contribute to AI‑enabled data enrichment and semantic search capabilities.
• Work with Docker, GitHub Actions, environment‑based configuration, and deployment tooling.
• Troubleshoot production issues and identify minimal, safe solutions to customer‑specific technical challenges.
• Mentor other engineers and raise engineering quality standards through technical feedback and code reviews.

Required Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience.
• Strong experience as a Full Stack Engineer, with proven ownership of features across backend and frontend.
• Strong professional experience building REST APIs with Java.
• Experience with Quarkus, Spring Boot, or another JVM‑based framework.
• Ability to quickly understand and work with Quarkus concepts such as:
• CDI
• RESTEasy Reactive
• MicroProfile
• JWT
• Strong production experience with React and TypeScript.
• Experience with Next.js and modern React development patterns.
• Query optimization
• Database migrations
• Experience with Flyway, Liquibase, or similar migration tools.
• Hands‑on experience with Docker and containerized development workflows.
• Experience writing and maintaining integration tests, not only unit tests.
• Strong understanding of test automation and the ability to determine what should—and should not—be automated.
• Experience with CI/CD workflows, preferably GitHub Actions.
• Strong understanding of production‑quality software engineering, including security, performance, reliability, maintainability, and safe database migrations.
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and the ability to deliver customer‑driven features quickly.
