Duration: 12 month contract
Shape the future of tech—code with the latest tools in a cutting-edge, engineer-led environment.
Is this you?
You’re a forward-thinking developer with a passion for clean code, innovative solutions, and making a real impact. You thrive in collaborative, agile teams and bring a product-first mindset to everything you do. Always learning, always improving—you’re driven to stay ahead of the curve and aren’t afraid to challenge the status quo.
What you’ll be doing (and why you’ll enjoy it)
You’ll design, develop, and deploy scalable back-end systems using Java 17, working closely with cross-functional teams including Product, DevOps, QA, and UX. Your role will involve refining architecture for speed and scalability, mentoring junior developers, and championing clean, testable code through TDD and pair programming. Every day brings the opportunity to contribute to impactful software used by thousands, all while innovating in a culture that supports passion projects and continuous improvement.
Where you’ll be doing it
Our client is a rapidly growing tech innovator known for delivering modern software solutions in a high-performance, agile environment. With a culture rooted in engineering excellence and empowerment, they prioritise innovation, learning, and flexibility. Their projects span industries, and their commitment to quality is reflected in their tech stack and progressive development practices.
What you’ll need
You’ll bring at least five years of back-end development experience, ideally with Java 11/17+. Strong Spring Boot skills, REST APIs, and a solid grasp of microservice architecture are essential. You should be familiar with Docker, CI/CD tools, and both SQL and NoSQL databases. A cloud-native mindset (AWS/GCP) and experience with tools like GraphQL, reactive programming, or DevOps practices will give you an edge.
What you’ll get
Alongside a market-leading salary and performance bonuses, you’ll enjoy flexible working arrangements, medical aid, wellness support, and top-tier equipment. The company also offers paid sabbatical leave after three years, regular innovation sprints, and investment in your growth through certifications, conferences, and mentorship.
