Callender Street, Belfast
£95,000 - 95,000
Requirements
Must:
We are looking for a Principal Java Engineer with at least 6 years of Java development experience, including deep knowledge of microservices. You should have experience migrating monolithic systems into modern service architectures, along with a strong grasp of system design, distributed systems, and cloud-native development. A technical mindset grounded in real-world delivery and commercial impact is essential, as is experience in mentoring or leading engineers in a high-growth environment. Excellent communication skills and a collaborative, team-first approach are also important.
Responsibilities
In this role, you will be responsible for designing and building modern Java microservices in an event-driven architecture. You will lead the break-up of legacy monolith systems into scalable, decoupled services and drive best practices in code quality, architecture, and delivery. Collaborating closely with product managers, designers, and engineering peers is a key part of your responsibilities. You will also provide mentorship and leadership within the team, from pairing to code review, helping the business scale safely and efficiently through pragmatic engineering decisions.
Description
We offer a generous annual leave policy, an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), private health cover including dental and optical, a cycle-to-work scheme, and technology benefits. We provide a flexible working environment and the opportunity to work with a mission-led scaleup that is solving real-world safety problems. If you are a pragmatic Java engineer who loves clean systems, building for scale, and leading others toward technical excellence, we encourage you to apply for this role.
