  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver backend-driven features
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex backend issues, including performance bottlenecks and scaling challenges
  • (Optional) Contribute to frontend development using Angular or React

Requirements

  • Proficiency in Kotlin or Java with Spring Boot, with proven experience delivering production-grade systems
  • Strong understanding of microservices architecture, distributed systems and event-driven patterns
  • Experience with relational and NoSQL databases (e.g., Postgres, MongoDB, CosmosDB), including schema design and performance tuning
  • Familiarity with testing frameworks (JUnit, Mockk, Mockito, TestContainers) and test automation practices
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), and version control (Git/GitHub/GitLab)
  • Knowledge of application security principles (authentication, authorization, data protection)
  • Ability to troubleshoot and resolve backend issues in complex environments
  • Experience working in Agile/Scrum teams with collaborative development practices
  • No visa sponsorship available

Nice to Have

  • Frontend: Angular, React, TypeScript/JavaScript (for occasional full-stack contributions)
  • Cloud & DevOps: Azure or AWS; Event Grid, Kafka, Event Hub, Key Vault, GitHub Actions, Terraform, Azure Databricks
  • CI/CD & Infrastructure: Containerization, pipelines, and infrastructure-as-code

We Offer

  • Opportunity to work in a dynamic and innovative environment
  • Competitive salary package
  • Professional growth and development opportunities
