Lead Java Full Stack Engineer
About The Position
We are seeking an accomplished Lead Java Full Stack Engineer to architect, design, develop, and maintain enterprise-grade web applications and distributed systems that operate at significant scale and across multiple business domains. In this role you will be responsible for the end-to-end engineering lifecycle, from translating business requirements into robust technical designs, to writing production-quality code, to deploying cloud-native services and supporting them through their full operational lifespan. The successful candidate will bring deep backend expertise in Java and the Spring ecosystem, combined with strong hands-on experience building responsive, component-driven front-end applications using modern JavaScript frameworks. You will work closely with product managers, architects, DevOps engineers, and fellow developers in an Agile environment to deliver high-quality, secure, and performant applications that directly support strategic business outcomes.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a closely related technical discipline.
- Five or more years of professional software development experience building production-grade enterprise applications.
- Strong, demonstrable understanding of data structures, algorithms, computational complexity, and end-to-end system design principles.
- Advanced working knowledge of Java (versions 11 and 17), the Spring Boot framework, and the design of clean, idiomatic RESTful APIs.
- Hands-on, production-level experience designing and operating microservices architectures, including service decomposition, inter-service communication, and observability patterns.
- Proven experience developing front-end applications using React, with working familiarity in Angular or Vue considered a strong plus.
- Strong SQL skills and meaningful experience working with relational databases such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, or SQL Server, including query tuning and schema design.
- Solid experience with CI/CD tooling and Git-based version control workflows, including branching strategies, code review practices, and release management.
- Hands-on experience deploying applications to at least one major cloud platform (AWS, Azure, or GCP), including familiarity with managed services, networking, and identity primitives.
- Strong debugging, troubleshooting, and root-cause analysis skills, with the discipline to investigate problems methodically and document findings clearly.
Nice To Haves
- Experience designing and operating event-driven architectures using Kafka, RabbitMQ, or equivalent streaming platforms.
- Familiarity with containerization and orchestration using Docker and Kubernetes in production environments.
- Exposure to distributed system design principles such as eventual consistency, CAP trade-offs, idempotency, and saga patterns.
- Experience writing automation tests using modern frameworks and contributing to test-driven and behavior-driven development practices.
Responsibilities
