Job description

We are looking for an experienced software engineer to join our Product Development team as a Senior Product Developer in the Platform Engineering group.

In this role, you will be a crucial part of the team responsible for creating and maintaining the core infrastructure, tooling, and foundational architecture that empowers the rest of the Denodo Platform development teams. Rather than focusing on a single user-facing module, your work will directly impact the developer experience, platform security, and deployment ecosystem of the entire product. You will lead key initiatives starting with the complete redesign of the Denodo Platform installer. Moving forward, you will act as a driving force in modernizing our codebase, mitigating third‑party risks, and elevating our internal development standards through the integration of modern tooling and AI-assisted workflows.

The technologies and external tools with which you will work or interact are also very diverse. For example, different types of databases (relational, multidimensional, parallel, document-oriented, etc.), Big Data sources, SaaS sources, Web Services, message queues, technologies related to authentication and authorization (Identity Providers, SAML, OAuth, Kerberos, Vaults, etc.), cloud technologies (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), container technologies (Docker, Kubernetes), web technologies (both backend and frontend), indexing and search engines (Lucene, Elasticsearch), business intelligence tools, workflow management tools, version control systems, and many others.

Job Responsibilities & Duties

• Initially, you will receive training on the Denodo Platform at the user level to understand the product that Denodo develops.
• You will also receive training on the development process used in Denodo and the tools involved in it (Redmine, Git, Jenkins, Sonar, automated test frameworks, etc.)
• Spearhead the redesign and development of a modernized product installer from the ground up.
• Identify, manage, and remediate third‑party dependencies and security vulnerabilities to ensure the platform remains secure and compliant.
• Lead the migration of platform components to newer Java versions to leverage the latest performance and security enhancements.
• Drive the modernization of our codebase by acting as the main architect in using AI for refactoring. Examples of past modernization include Java 11 to 17 and 17 to 25, Spring Boot 3 to 4, and removing usages of commons‑lang3. You will elevate our standards by implementing cutting‑edge language features, such as integrating Java sealed classes and records into java_cup generated outputs, to ensure a robust, high‑performance architecture.
• Integrate, configure, and maintain advanced code quality and static analysis tools, such as SonarQube and Error Prone.
• Design and implement robust automated tests for all infrastructure and core platform components.
• Create and maintain clear, comprehensive technical documentation for internal developer tools and platform infrastructure.
• Execute multicloud development strategies to support diverse platform deployment environments.
• Lead the advanced use of JetBrains Ultimate and AI‑assisted workflows for the entire team to improve productivity and code quality.
• Creation and maintenance of the product documentation

Skills & Experience

• BS or higher degree in Computer Science.
• At least 3 years of experience in Software Development.
• Programming experience with Java
• Knowledge of Design Patterns.
• Knowledge of SQL and relational database design.
• Good written communication skills in English.
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving abilities.
• Team worker with a positive attitude.
• Development Lifecycle and Version Control (pref. Maven and git)

We value knowledge and/or experience in the following (these are not required):

• Experience in Agile software development Methodologies.
• Experience developing in distributed application environments.
• Software security techniques and technologies.
• Spring Framework, Spring Boot and/or related technologies.

What we offer:

• Flexible working hours.
• Hybrid teleworking scheme.
• No work on Friday afternoons.
• Private medical insurance.
• “Planes de retribución flexible”: “Ticket Restaurante”, “Ticket Guardería” and “Ticket Transporte“
• Possibility of participating in the company's stock options programme (depending on performance).
• Fixed remuneration starting at €35,000, in line with the candidate’s experience and knowledge, plus variable pay component.
