Job Responsibility:

  • Design and develop robust, high-performance back-end systems using Java 11+ and the Spring Boot ecosystem
  • Lead design discussions, code reviews, and architecture sessions with a hands-on approach
  • Build and maintain microservices and event-driven systems to process and distribute large-scale financial data
  • Develop data integration and pipeline components that connect systems across Snowflake, SQL Server, and real-time streaming platforms
  • Implement and optimize Redis-based caching and data stores for low-latency access patterns
  • Champion best practices for code quality, testing, automation, and performance tuning
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure technical solutions align with product goals and business outcomes

Requirements:

  • B.S./M.S. in Computer Science, Engineering, or related discipline
  • 3+ years of professional experience in Java and object-oriented design
  • Strong knowledge of Spring Boot, REST APIs, and enterprise integration patterns
  • Deep expertise in SQL Server, including stored procedures, performance tuning, and data modeling
  • Experience with Redis for caching or data persistence
  • Hands-on exposure to Kafka or similar publish-subscribe systems for real-time event processing
  • Familiarity with Snowflake and data pipeline concepts (ETL, batch vs. streaming)
  • Experience with Agentic coding and general understanding of how LLMs are working
  • Strong focus on clean architecture, maintainability, and production readiness

Nice to have:

  • Experience with Kubernetes, Docker, or cloud-native environments (AWS/GCP)
  • Exposure to observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Open Telemetry)
  • Scripting experience in Python for automation or data analysis
  • Exposure to Prompt Engineering and Agentic AI
  • Interest in financial systems, accounting, or investment technology
What we offer:
  • Retirement investment and tools designed to help you in building a sound financial future
