ROLE OVERVIEW

 

We are urgently seeking a highly skilled Senior Java Engineer to join our client team based in Ireland on a hybrid working model.

REQUIREMENTS

 

     Minimum 8 years of active, hands-on Java development — candidates must demonstrate current, working proficiency, not experience from several years ago.

     Strong, up-to-date expertise in Java OOP principles, concurrency, and modern Java features; recent and regular practice is essential.

     Proven, current hands-on experience with Spring Boot — candidates must be able to build and discuss Spring Boot applications confidently during technical evaluation.

     Real-world coding experience in microservices architecture — candidates must be able to describe actual implementations and write microservices code; conceptual understanding alone is not sufficient.

     Solid practical knowledge of Apache Kafka in a production setting, including producing, consuming, and managing topics — basic or introductory exposure will not meet the requirement.

     Experience working in Agile / Scrum delivery environments.

     Good communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively with onsite and distributed teams.

     Contribute to technical documentation, design decisions, and best practices.
