Role Overview
We are looking for a deeply hands-on Senior Java Engineer who can provide technical leadership while continuing to design, build and ship production code. You will work across several backend services rather than being assigned to one isolated project. The environment consists of distributed, cloud-native systems, with Java as the primary language and Python used across parts of the wider platform.
You will collaborate closely with Product Owners, DevOps engineers and other development teams, helping shape technical solutions across multiple services and translating product requirements into scalable backend architecture.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design, build and maintain scalable backend services and APIs, primarily in Java
- Write production-quality code as a core part of your daily work
- Contribute to Python services and codebases when required
- Work across approximately three to four interconnected microservices
- Make and influence technical and architectural decisions
- Break down complex requirements and guide their technical implementation
- Review code and establish strong engineering standards
- Mentor engineers and provide technical guidance without formal line-management responsibility
- Collaborate with Product Owners to evaluate requirements, trade-offs and delivery approaches
- Build and operate cloud-native services, primarily on AWS
- Deploy and run containerised applications using Kubernetes and Docker
- Work with DevOps engineers on CI/CD, deployment, scalability and reliability
- Use data, analytics and operational insights to support technical decisions
- Contribute to testing, documentation and continuous improvement throughout the SDLC
- Support the adoption of AI-assisted engineering tools and solutions where appropriate
Requirements:
- At least 5 years of professional backend engineering experience
- Strong, recent and hands-on commercial experience with Java
- Proven experience
