📋 Description

• Build durable systems. Design and implement Java services, Temporal workflows, and Kafka-based event pipelines, and help clients adopt durable execution and event streaming the right way — from first workflow to production scale. • Lead modernization efforts. Plan and execute large-scale modernization efforts — moving workflows, services, and data between platforms, clusters, and clouds — with safety, observability, and minimal disruption as first-class requirements. • Own the platform. Build and operate Kubernetes-native infrastructure and CI/CD on AWS so application teams can ship safely and quickly. • Treat reliability, observability, and repeatability as part of the deliverable, not an afterthought. • Consult with clients to build outcome-driven applications and platforms, guiding them through the process, identifying potential problems and unknowns, and tackling challenges. • Travel on average of 3–5 days every quarter, while most work is remote. • Teach and discuss opportunities for training, planning, and running meetups or local groups, and create various kinds of content in your expertise.

🎯 Requirements

• Experienced building and running applications at the enterprise level • Strong working knowledge of Java and the JVM ecosystem (Spring Boot or similar) • Experience with additional backend languages (Go, Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, C#, etc.) is a plus • Hands-on experience with a durable execution / workflow engine — Temporal preferred (Apache Airflow, Prefect, or similar also relevant) • Experience designing and operating Kafka-based event streaming systems: topic and partition design, consumer groups, schema management • Experience designing and building GraphQL APIs — schema design, resolvers, and performance concerns (N+1, caching, pagination) • Deep, hands-on AWS experience: architecting, deploying, and operating production systems (EKS, networking, IAM, messaging, and data services) • Solid Kubernetes experience: deploying, operating, and debugging production workloads • A systems engineering mindset: understanding of complex scaling issues, concurrency, backpressure, caching strategies, and failure modes across distributed systems • Experience planning and executing migrations — application replatforming, workflow engine migrations, data/schema migrations • A thorough understanding of CI/CD pipelines and GitOps-style delivery • Experience with observability in practice — logging, metrics, and tracing (OpenTelemetry a plus) • Experience building modern microservice-based or serverless applications • Database schema design and development expertise

🏖️ Benefits

• Competitive salary and annual bonus opportunity • Completely remote work with flexible hours • 401(k) matching • 4 weeks of paid time off in addition to 8 paid holidays • Health, dental, and vision insurance offerings • Paid maternity and paternity leave • STD, LTD, and Life Insurance coverage
