Java Contract information

What is a Java contract?

A Java contract job is a temporary position where a programmer is hired to work on projects using the Java programming language for a fixed period, rather than as a permanent employee. Contractors are often brought in to fill skill gaps, complete specific projects, or handle increased workloads. These roles can be full-time or part-time and typically last from a few months to over a year, depending on the project's needs. Contractors may work onsite or remotely and are usually paid hourly or by project milestone. Java contract jobs offer flexibility and the opportunity to work with a variety of companies and technologies.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Java contract, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Java Contractor, you need strong proficiency in Java programming, experience with object-oriented design, and a solid understanding of software development methodologies, often supported by a relevant degree or certifications like Oracle Certified Professional Java Programmer (OCPJP). Familiarity with development tools such as Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA, version control systems like Git, and frameworks such as Spring or Hibernate is typically required. Excellent problem-solving, adaptability, and communication skills help you collaborate with diverse teams and quickly respond to project changes. These skills ensure high-quality, maintainable code and successful completion of contract-based software projects.

What are some common challenges faced by Java contracts and how can they be managed effectively?

Java contractors often work on short-term projects or fill skill gaps in development teams, which can present challenges such as quickly adapting to new codebases and varying team dynamics. To manage these effectively, it’s important to have strong communication skills, a proactive approach to understanding project requirements, and the ability to rapidly learn existing systems. Building rapport with permanent team members and maintaining thorough documentation can also help ease the transition. Staying current with Java frameworks and tools further ensures you can contribute value from day one.

Senior Full Stack Software Engineer - CostCheck

Bluesight

OR • On-site, Remote

Full-time

Retirement, PTO

Re-posted 21 days ago


Job description

At Bluesight, our mission is to create groundbreaking solutions that increase efficiency, safety and visibility for health systems, hospital pharmacy, and pharmaceutical manufacturers.  We empower our customers to deliver the right medicine to the right patient at the right time, every time.  We are a high growth healthcare information technology company with a start-up 'vibe' but over 3,000 customers using our proven solutions.
 

Bluesight is looking for a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer to help us redefine and grow our suite of healthcare data products to further the company's mission. Our CostCheck platform empowers hospital pharmacy teams to manage pharmaceutical spend - identifying overcharges, optimizing contract pricing, and surfacing savings opportunities across complex drug catalogs - in an efficient, accurate, and scalable manner. We are committed to improving the financial health and compliance of our nation's healthcare providers, and our spend analytics and alerting products are the backbone of our offerings.
 
Our next Full-Stack Engineer  will be dedicated and responsible for technical decision-making, design, and development across the CostCheck applications - from PostgreSQL schema and Hibernate/JPA persistence layers, through Spring Boot services, all the way to our Angular and React UIs - as well as interfacing with our other development teams.

This innovative individual must be versatile, display collaborative qualities, and be enthusiastic to tackle new problems in a robust and forward thinking business and technical environment. You will be a key contributor across the Bluesight Platform - including our shared Java data model and persistence library, customer-facing webapp, and internal admin tooling - as we look to build new customer features and keep codebases in line with modern technologies and code patterns.

While CostCheck is your home base, you'll also help shape the architecture and roadmap of our ShortageCheck drug shortage management platform. CostCheck and ShortageCheck share a growing set of roadmap items, and we want an engineer who can think across both products - ensuring the data models, services, and customer experiences evolve together rather than in isolation. ShortageCheck runs on a Python (FastAPI) and React/TypeScript stack, so comfort reaching into a Python codebase is a real plus.
 
Our Tech Stack
  • Backend (CostCheck): Java 21, Spring Boot, Hibernate/JPA, PostgreSQL, Maven
  • Backend (ShortageCheck): Python, MySQL + Athena, SageMaker ML pipelines
  • Frontend: Angular, React, TypeScript
  • Infra: AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, CloudFront)
  • AI-assisted development: We are heavy Claude Code users - our engineers ship faster by pairing with Claude on everything from schema migrations and Hibernate entity design to Angular component work, code review, and production support. We invest in custom skills, subagents, and team-shared workflows, and we expect our engineers to be effective at leveraging AI tooling as a force multiplier.
You can expect to
  • Design and build features end-to-end: PostgreSQL schema and migrations, Hibernate/JPA entities, Spring Boot REST APIs, and the webapps that consume them.
  • Tune complex queries against a large, normalized pharmaceutical data model.
  • Maintain a high bar for developer experience and champion technical excellence.
  • Review code and provide thoughtful, constructive feedback during code reviews.
  • Own the full software development lifecycle - from ideation and design to deployment and monitoring in Datadog.
  • Contribute to ShortageCheck's product architecture and roadmap, helping align overlapping initiatives across CostCheck and ShortageCheck so the two platforms grow together.
  • Provide compassionate technical mentorship and pairing opportunities.
  • Push our AI-assisted workflows forward - build skills, refine prompts, and help the team get more out of Claude Code.
  • Stay updated with industry trends and integrate emerging technologies.
Qualifications and Requirements
  • 5+ years of experience as a software engineer working across the stack.
  • Deep expertise in Java and Spring Boot, including REST API design, dependency injection, and testing.
  • Strong Hibernate/JPA skills - entity mapping, relationship modeling, fetching strategies, and avoiding common pitfalls (N+1, lazy-loading issues, dialect/connection-pool quirks).
  • Strong PostgreSQL skills - schema design, indexing, query tuning, and writing/reviewing migrations safely against large production datasets.
  • Comfort on the front-end: experience with modern web frameworks and integrating UIs with RESTful APIs.
  • Expertise in software engineering best practices, including unit and integration testing.
  • Hands-on experience with AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, etc.) and a thoughtful perspective on where they help and where human judgment is required.
  • Progressive experience in analyzing complex problems, developing solutions, and building CI/CD pipelines.
  • Effective verbal and written communication skills with the ability to collaborate within the team and across the organization.
  • Embody our core values (Get Stuff Done, Join Forces, Honor the Customer, Redefine Possible, and Have Fun).
 
Nice to have
  • Experience in healthcare or other regulated industries, with a focus on building compliant and secure solutions.
  • Familiarity with AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3), Terraform, and Datadog APM.
  • Experience building or extending Claude Code skills, subagents, hooks, or MCP integrations.
  • Experience with AWS Bedrock or SageMaker to help prototype the next generation of AI technology for the product.
  • Experience working in a multi-repo / multi-service codebase with a shared core library.
  • Working knowledge of Python (FastAPI a plus) to contribute across the ShortageCheck stack.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field.
What you'll get from us
  • Opportunities to solve problems of scale, debt and security to redefine what's possible in medication intelligence
  • Room to be creative and choose your own path
  • Trust in your sense of ownership
  • Dedicated budget for training and career development
  • Coworkers who you'll learn from, who will push you and who are looking to learn from you
