Requirements

Must:
We are looking for candidates with at least 2 years of hands-on Java development experience. You should possess strong problem-solving skills and the ability to thrive in an agile, fast-paced environment. A solid understanding of modern Java frameworks, tools, and best practices is essential. We want someone who enjoys learning, improving, and taking ownership of their work, along with good communication and collaboration skills. Due to the nature of the role, candidates must have UK or EU settled status with full right to work in the UK, as we are unable to offer visa sponsorship. Additionally, you must be eligible for UK security clearance, which typically requires at least five years of continuous UK residency with no significant travel gaps.

Responsibilities

In this role, you will be developing robust and scalable solutions using Java and modern frameworks. Your tasks will include applying strong object-oriented programming (OOP) principles and leveraging Java 8+ features (streams, functional interfaces, collections) for clean and efficient code. You will be responsible for building and maintaining RESTful APIs following best practices, implementing multi-threading and performance optimization strategies, and working with frameworks such as Spring Boot, Guice, and Mustache for web applications. You will also write unit and integration tests with JUnit, Mockito, Wiremock, and Cucumber, manage databases like Postgres, Aurora, and ElasticSearch, and utilize caching solutions like ElasticCache. Deploying applications using Docker and Kubernetes, while having experience with AWS infrastructure, would be advantageous. Setting up CI/CD pipelines with tools like Bitbucket, Terraform, Jenkins, and Ansible, and handling queuing and event-driven architectures with Kafka and SQS will also be part of your role. Implementing security best practices and monitoring/logging solutions (ELK stack, RedHat SSO, SonarQube) will be key responsibilities as well.

Description

What we offer includes hybrid working arrangements, typically two days a week in the office with flexibility. We provide private medical insurance because your health matters, along with a travel allowance to support your commute. Enjoy 25 days of holiday with the option to buy more, a pension scheme to help you plan for the future, and an annual performance-based bonus recognizing your contributions. We also offer life and income protection insurance for peace of mind for you and your family, along with additional benefits, including dental, critical illness cover, and cycle-to-work schemes. If this opportunity sounds right for you, we would love to hear from you. Please apply!
