Lead Java/Fullstack Developer (Backoffice)

About Patrianna

Patrianna is a fast-scaling product development company headquartered in Gibraltar, with a dynamic, global team powering our growth. We operate at the intersection of technology and entertainment, building innovative solutions that shape the future of social gaming and deliver outstanding experiences to millions of players worldwide.

We’re driven by speed, ambition, and bold ideas. At our core, we’re product creators and problem-solvers who thrive in a high-performance environment. We’re looking for exceptional talent-smart, adaptable, and motivated individuals eager to make an impact, scale business functions at pace, and continuously improve.

AI-Driven Engineering Culture

We are actively building an AI-driven engineering organization with a clear and deliberate stance: artificial intelligence is a core part of how we build and deliver software — not an experiment, not a trend, and not an optional add-on.

AI is embedded into our engineering workflows, from system design and prototyping to refactoring, testing, and code review. We rely on AI to significantly influence how work is done and to accelerate delivery, while maintaining a high bar for code quality, system reliability, and architectural clarity.

We expect engineers to be fully comfortable working in AI-driven environments and to treat AI as a primary productivity multiplier. Preference for AI-free workflows or resistance to AI-assisted development is NOT aligned with how we operate.

Strong engineering judgment, architectural ownership, and accountability remain essential. AI amplifies our engineers — it does not replace responsibility for technical decisions.

• Take end-to-end ownership of system reliability, security, and usability while managing technical debt
  
  

What We Are Looking For

• Extensive production experience with Java ecosystem and strong understanding of JVM internals
• Excellent system design skills with ability to implement scalable architectures and optimize database performance
• Deep understanding of messaging concepts (Kafka or similar) and concurrency principles
