Job description

Java Developer
12-Month Contract Only 
 
LocationREMOTE 
Pay: $50-60/hr (Compensation can vary depending on experience) 
 
General Overview
We are seeking a skilled Java Developer to design and build core backend applications, with a strong emphasis on the Spring Framework and Spring Boot. This role is central to delivering enterprise content and document management solutions in a fast-paced, high-impact environment.
You’ll develop mission-critical applications focused on system integration and content services, enabling seamless, reliable data exchange across diverse platforms. Much of your work will center on building solutions that manage and deliver content—documents, images, videos, and other file formats—to both internal and external users.
 
Responsibilities
  • Lead technical discussions, design sessions, and architectural decisions, providing expert-level guidance in Java development.
  • Design, build, and maintain scalable backend services, including RESTful APIs, microservices, database integrations, and legacy SOAP-based services.
  • Develop cloud-native applications leveraging Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
  • Partner with DevOps teams to optimize CI/CD pipelines and streamline deployment processes.
  • Enforce coding standards and best practices through code reviews, mentoring, and technical leadership.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve performance bottlenecks, implementing caching strategies and optimizing database queries.
  • Apply security best practices around authentication, authorization, and data protection, ensuring compliance with industry standards.
  • Produce clear technical documentation, including architecture diagrams, API specifications, and deployment guides.
Requirements
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field.
  • 5+ years of backend development experience in Java.
  • Expertise in Spring Framework and Spring Boot (RESTful services, microservices, dependency injection).
  • Hands-on experience with Docker and containerized application deployment in cloud or on-prem environments.
  • Strong background in building and integrating RESTful and SOAP services.
  • Proficiency with SQL and relational database queries.
  • Familiarity with observability platforms (Splunk, Dynatrace).
  • Experience with unit and integration testing frameworks (JUnit, Mockito).
  • Basic knowledge of front-end technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSP, jQuery, Angular).
  • Excellent communication, problem-solving, and organizational skills.
  • Team player with a growth mindset.
 
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience with Enterprise Application Integration (EAI).
  • Advanced Spring Framework/Spring Boot features (Spring MVC, Spring Web Services).
  • Database integration with DB2 and MS SQL Server via JDBC.
  • Experience with JBoss, Tomcat, or other Java EE servers.
  • Familiarity with XML, JSON, and structured text formats.
  • Test-Driven Development (TDD) experience.
  • Front-end integration (JSTL, EL, jQuery UI, custom tags/plugins).
  • Proficiency with Linux and Windows operating systems.
  • Experience working in Agile environments with tools like JIRA (Scrum/Kanban).
