Job description

Job Summary
We are seeking a Senior Backend Developer to design implement and refactor core platform services supporting federated authentication and a multi-entity vehicle management system. This role focuses on integrating Firebase-based identity restructuring backend data models and modernizing API layers to support scalable account vehicle and profile relationships.
Responsibilities
  • Data Model & Persistence Layer
  • Design and implement new domain entities including user_account and vehicle_profile to support federated identity mapping.
  • Refactor existing schemas (e.g.vehicle_enrollment) to separate vehicle-level and profile-level concerns.
  • Develop and execute database migrations including:
  • Table creation column restructuring and foreign key repointing
  • Index updates and performance optimizations
  • Implement data backfill and reconciliation logic for existing records including consolidation of vehicle and profile relationships.

API & Middleware Development
  • Refactor REST APIs to support:
  • Account-level vehicle-level and profile-level operations
  • Updated relationships between entities (account-vehicles-profiles)
  • Implement cross-cutting concerns:
  • Request interceptors/filters for authentication and context resolution
  • Shared request context updates (vehicleProfileId userAccountId)
  • Enhance API contracts OpenAPI documentation and error handling to reflect new data model and authentication patterns.

Authentication & Security Integration
  • Integrate Firebase Authentication and implement ID-token validation and claim extraction.
  • Transition from client-credential-based authentication (e.g. Keycloak) to federated identity model.
  • Implement account-ownership authorization to enforce access control across account vehicle and profile scopes.

Service Layer & Business Logic
  • Rework service logic to support:
  • Vehicle enrollment and profile creation flows
  • Signing key management and rotation
  • Payment/card binding at profile level
  • Update transaction processing logic to distinguish between:
  • Profile-based signed transactions
  • Vehicle-level fallback scenarios
  • Implement account-level operations such as:
  • Full account closure with cascading vehicle unenrollment and partial failure handling
  • Work with third-party integrations including:
  • Firebase (identity provider)
  • MasterCard SRC (card tokenization and identity binding)
  • Payment middleware and BOS systems
  • Ensure consistency of entity mapping across internal services and external callbacks.

Testing & Quality Engineering
  • Develop and execute integration and regression test plans across:
  • Updated schema and foreign key relationships
  • API endpoints and authentication flows
  • Update test teardown and data lifecycle logic to reflect new entity relationships.
  • Strong experience in backend development (Java/Spring Boot or similar frameworks)
  • Proven expertise in:
  • REST API design and refactoring
  • Relational database design schema migrations and indexing
  • Authentication/authorization frameworks (JWT OAuth federated identity)
  • Experience implementing middleware components such as interceptors filters and request contexts
  • Familiarity with cloud-based identity providers (e.g. Firebase Auth OAuth providers)
  • Experience with payment systems and tokenization (e.g. MasterCard SRC or similar)
  • Prior work on multi-tenant or hierarchical data models (account-asset-profile)
  • Knowledge of event-driven integrations and callback-based third-party systems
  • Experience with API gateways and distributed security validation patterns
  • Strong system design and data modeling skills
  • Ability to manage complex refactoring across multiple layers (DB API service)
  • Attention to data integrity security and backward compatibility
  • Effective collaboration across architecture QA and integration teams
  • End-to-end ownership of a major platform refactor spanning:
  • Data model redesign
  • Authentication transformation
  • API and service re-architecture
  • Direct impact on enabling scalable multi-vehicle multi-profile user experiences
  • Critical role in aligning platform architecture with federated identity standards and payment constraints
