Staff Software Engineer - Java Backend

Overview

Hands-on Staff Engineer to design and develop highly scalable, performant full-stack applications, with deep Java backend, Spring Boot, ReactJS and micro-frontend skills, and a core technical contributor role using Kafka and Kubernetes to build robust microservices and event-driven systems.

What you'll do

• Execute complex development efforts across the stack, bridging backend logic using Java, Spring Boot and Spring Cloud with modern frontend interfaces using ReactJS
• Implement robust messaging patterns using Kafka to ensure high availability and data consistency
• Build modular user interfaces using Micro-frontend (MFE) patterns to ensure maintainability and independent deployability
• Apply and implement software engineering best practices (SOLID principles, design patterns, clean code, TDD) within the codebase
• Manage containerization and orchestration strategies using Docker and Kubernetes within a CI/CD environment
• Work across various data storage engines, designing efficient models for RDBMS (Oracle, Postgres) and NoSQL (Redis, ElasticSearch)
• Analyze and optimize system performance, reliability and scalability for high-throughput applications
• Articulate technical challenges and solutions clearly in both written and verbal formats
• Work collaboratively within a team and build rapport with cross-functional partners (Product, UX, QA)

What you'll need

• Bachelor's or master's degree in computer science/engineering with 5+ years of software engineering experience
• Deep expertise in the enterprise Java stack: Java/JEE, Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, Reactive Spring, JPA/Spring Data and Hibernate
• Strong proficiency in ReactJS with hands-on experience in Micro-frontend (MFE) architecture
• Advanced skills in event-driven architecture; Kafka experience (producer/consumer patterns, event schema design) is a must
• Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes (K8s), Docker and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions)
• Proven expertise in designing and securing RESTful APIs (Swagger/OpenAPI)
• Strong proficiency in SQL (Relational) and familiarity with NoSQL data stores (Redis, Elasticsearch)
• Strong grasp of Data Structures, Concurrency, Algorithms and Object-Oriented Design patterns
• Proficient with Git, Maven/Gradle, Grafana and Kibana

Nice to have

• Experience with workflow engines such as Temporal, Camunda, or custom business process automation tools
• Familiarity with network device protocols (gNMI, SNMP) or network automation
• Experience or interest in AI development areas: NLP, predictive analytics, or LLM integration
• Experience with Python or Golang
• Familiarity with GraphDB technologies
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
