Senior Java Software Engineer (m/f/x)

Are you passionate about software engineering and eager to collaborate with an international team of experts? Do you have a keen interest in observability platforms and aspire to contribute to a globally leading product?

Join our Usage Tracking & Metering team and help shape how Dynatrace customers understand and manage their usage, from raw data ingestion to actionable insights. We tackle this at the scale of one of the world's leading observability platforms.

In Usage Tracking & Metering, our team owns its services end-to-end. You'll work with technology chosen to match the challenge: Kafka drives our high-throughput data ingestion pipeline, and Grail, the Dynatrace data lakehouse, lets us query and analyze usage data at massive scale. Our services run on Kubernetes in the cloud, built with the latest versions of Java. We deploy via Jenkins and ArgoCD, manage infrastructure with Terraform, and build with Gradle — with automation keeping all dependencies up to date. We actively use GitHub Copilot and Claude to power AI-assisted development workflows and agentic automation.

In our team, we own what we build — from design and the first commit to production monitoring. We work in short iterations, ship often, and course-correct early. We give each other honest feedback, trust each other to make decisions, and hold ourselves accountable for what we ship and how it runs.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain Java-based microservices that process usage data at scale, model billing and domain logic, and deliver actionable insights into costs and product utilization.
• Drive architectural decisions for the services and components within our domain.
• Drive feature development in close collaboration with stakeholders and engineers from other domains, working in small, focused squads.
• Continuously evolve our development workflows — leveraging AI tools, improving collaboration, and refining delivery practices — to boost team productivity and code quality.
• Mentor and support colleagues, fostering an approachable and supportive environment.
• Participate in code reviews, testing, and debugging to ensure the quality and performance of the software.
• Take ownership of your services and features and fully utilize Dynatrace to monitor and optimize your applications.

• Degree in Software Engineering or equivalent practical experience in software development.
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in Java development or a comparable programming language.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
• Collaborative and motivational team member with a proactive approach.

• A one-product software company creating real value for the largest enterprises and millions of end customers globally, striving for a world where software works perfectly.
• Working with the latest technologies and at the forefront of innovation in tech on scale; but also, in other areas like marketing, design, or research.
• A hybrid working model that combines home and in-office work.
• A team that thinks outside the box, welcomes unconventional ideas and pushes boundaries.
• An environment that fosters innovation, enables creative collaboration, and allows you to grow.
• A globally unique and tailor-made career development program recognizing your potential, promoting your strengths, and supporting you in achieving your career goals.
• A truly international mindset with Dynatracers from different countries & cultures all over the world, and English as the corporate language that connects us all
• A culture that is being shaped by the diverse personalities, expertise, and backgrounds of our global team.

• We offer attractive compensation packages and stock purchase options with numerous benefits and advantages.
• Due to legal reasons, we are obliged to disclose the minimum salary for this position, which is € 65,000 gross per year based on full-time employment. We offer a higher salary in line with qualifications and experience.
