Overview

Who we are: For over 20 years, Global Relay has set the standard in enterprise information archiving with industry-leading cloud archiving, surveillance, eDiscovery, and analytics solutions. We securely capture and preserve the communications data of the world’s most highly regulated firms, giving them greater visibility and control over their information and ensuring compliance with stringent regulations.

Though we offer competitive compensation and benefits and all the other perks one would expect from an established company, we are not your typical technology company. Global Relay is a career-building company. A place for big ideas. New challenges. Groundbreaking innovation. It’s a place where you can genuinely make an impact – and be recognized for it.

We believe great businesses thrive on diversity, inclusion, and the contributions of all employees. To that end, we recruit candidates from different backgrounds and foster a work environment that encourages employees to collaborate and learn from each other, completely free of barriers.

Joining the Reporting product line, you would work as a member of a small, highly focused team, responsible for delivering backend services for a highly scalable reporting and analytics platform, using leading edge technologies. This is an opportunity to work in an environment that encourages creative thinking and autonomy. We encourage our developers to think beyond a single component to build complete system solutions. Challenge yourself by learning new technologies, and apply your skills across our different projects and application domains. If you are committed to code that is clean, well-tested, well-reviewed, performant and secure then you’ll fit in around here

Your Responsibilities

• Develop ETL and ELT jobs and processes.
• Support data analysis and design efforts within the wider team.
• Migrate existing services to microservices, with the goal of reducing complexity at the design and architecture level.
• Write unit and integration tests for your Java code.
• Collaborate with testers in development of functional test cases.
• Develop deployment systems for Java based systems.
• Collaborate with product owners on user story generation and refinement.
• Monitor and support the operation of production systems.
• Participate in knowledge sharing activities with colleagues.
• Pair programming and peer reviews.
