Who We Are

We are looking for an experienced Senior Java & Kafka Engineer to join a team building modern, cloud-based, data-driven applications and real-time streaming solutions. We are particularly interested in engineers who sit at the intersection of backend software engineering and data streaming.

The right profile should be comfortable writing substantial Java business logic, while also understanding how applications interact through Kafka-based asynchronous and event-driven architectures.

This is not a pure DevOps role. The position involves hands-on software engineering and the development of business logic using Java, rather than focusing primarily on infrastructure management, CI/CD pipelines, or platform operations.

At the same time, this is more than a traditional Backend Java role. The focus goes beyond standard REST/CRUD applications, with a strong emphasis on event-driven architectures, real-time data processing, Kafka-based integrations, and cloud-native solutions running on AWS.





The ideal candidate has a strong Java engineering background combined with practical experience designing and implementing solutions using Apache Kafka. Experience with Confluent Kafka / Confluent Platform is highly desirable but not mandatory.

What You'll Be Doing

• Design, develop, and maintain Java-based applications and services supporting data-driven business processes
• Build and evolve event-driven and real-time data streaming architectures using Apache Kafka
• Develop Kafka producers, consumers, event-processing components, and integration services
• Design reliable and scalable communication patterns between distributed systems
• Build cloud-native solutions and deploy/integrate applications within AWS environments
• Implement business logic around asynchronous events and streaming data
• Ensure solutions are scalable, resilient, maintainable, and production-ready
• Troubleshoot application, integration, and data-streaming issues across distributed environment
