ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a Full Stack Developer to build backend services with Java and Spring Boot, support the Angular frontend, and help move the architecture toward domain-driven design.
MUST HAVES
- Core Stack: Advanced proficiency in Java (Spring Boot) and a solid working knowledge of Angular, with at least 4 years of experience.
- Design Fundamentals: A strong grasp of Object-Oriented Design (OOD) and software design patterns.
- API Knowledge: Deep experience building and consuming RESTful services with a clear understanding of standard API protocols.
- Database & Advanced SQL (Strict Rejection Criteria): Experience working with relational databases (PostgreSQL, Oracle) and JPA/Hibernate. Candidates must have robust transactional database experience (Oracle, Postgres), strong SQL skills to navigate and optimize very complex SQL, and a thorough understanding of enterprise-level, high-transactional platforms. Lacking this specific database proficiency will be a direct reason for rejection.

- Domain Experience: Previous experience in the Loyalty or Fintech sectors.
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS or Azure) and containerization (Docker).
- Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitLab CI).
- Experience refactoring legacy structures into modern, domain-driven architectures.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
- Core Development: Spend the majority of your time (approx. 70-80%) designing and implementing robust backend services using Java and Spring Boot.
- Frontend Integration: Build and maintain the supporting Angular frontend, ensuring a seamless connection between the UI and your backend logic.
- Modernizing Architecture: Lead the transition from traditional database-centric designs toward a domain-driven structure (DDD).
- API Excellence: Architect RESTful APIs that prioritize proper HTTP verbs and clean, scalable patterns over legacy RPC styles.
- Collaboration: Work within cross-functional squads to deliver high-quality features while maintaining the "cohesive and proactive" spirit of the team.
PERKS AND BENEFITS
- Professional growth: Mentorship, TechTalks, and personalized growth roadmaps.
- Competitive compensation: USD-based pay with education, fitness, and team activity budgets.
- Exciting projects: Modern solutions with Fortune 500 and top product companies.
- Flextime: Flexible schedule with remote and office options.
