Job Title: Java Developer — Backend

Employment Type: Full-Time

Company Overview

We are a forward-thinking software engineering team dedicated to delivering high-quality, scalable applications for clients across industries. We emphasize clean code, robust architecture, end-to-end ownership, and continuous improvement. Our culture encourages collaboration, learning, and shared responsibility.

Position Summary

We are looking for a talented and experienced Java Developer to join our backend engineering team. In this role, you'll design, develop, and maintain backend services and APIs, leveraging cloud-native technologies to build scalable, reliable, and high-performance systems. Although the focus is on backend development, there may be opportunities to contribute to frontend tasks when technical needs arise. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams — architects, frontend developers, QA, and DevOps — to ensure the successful delivery of features from conception to production.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain backend services and RESTful APIs using Java (Java 8+) and frameworks such as Spring Boot and Hibernate.
• Build scalable, cloud-native applications by leveraging AWS services (EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, and other relevant tools).
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define system architecture, ensuring that solutions meet requirements for performance, scalability, security, and maintainability.
• Troubleshoot, debug, and optimize backend services; monitor performance, fix bugs, and implement improvements over time.
• Maintain clear and up-to-date documentation for all code, APIs, and system design decisions.
• Participate in code reviews, adhere to coding standards, and follow best practices for version control (e.g., Git), branching strategies, and CI/CD workflows.
• Work with DevOps or infrastructure teams — if applicable — to support containerization (Docker), orchestration (Kubernetes), deployments, and automated builds.
• Use caching strategies (e.g., Redis, Memcached), background processing or message queues, and database optimizations where relevant to ensure application efficiency.
• Apply agile methodologies: attend sprint planning sessions, contribute to backlog grooming, and track tasks using tools like JIRA.

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
• Minimum 3–4 years of professional experience developing backend systems using Java (Java 8+).
• Solid hands‑on experience with Spring Boot and Hibernate (or equivalent ORM frameworks).
• Strong understanding of RESTful API design, microservices architecture, and design patterns.
• Proficiency with AWS cloud services (EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, etc.).
• Familiarity with relational databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) and/or NoSQL databases, with experience in writing efficient queries and schema design.
• Experience using version control (Git), and working with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions).
• Good communication skills, ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams, and strong problem‑solving mindset.

Preferred / Nice‑to‑Have Skills

• Certifications such as AWS Certified Developer – Associate (or equivalent).
• Experience with containerization (Docker) and orchestration tools (e.g. Kubernetes).
• Familiarity with caching systems (Redis, Memcached), message queues, and background job processing.
• Experience or willingness to contribute to frontend development using modern frameworks (React, Angular, Vue).
• Exposure to full‑stack development — ability to manage end‑to‑end feature delivery from backend to frontend and deploy to production.
• Experience working in Agile environments, using tools like JIRA, Confluence, and collaborating in sprints.
