  • Operating day-to-day within the project tools, codebase, infrastructure, and processes as part of the project team.




You will need:

  • 7+ years of experience as a software engineer;
  • Strong experience with Java (Spring Boot), Apache Kafka, and microservices architecture;
  • Confidence navigating and contributing to large, unfamiliar codebases;
  • Solid understanding of messaging protocols and data mapping;
