Salary

💰 $80,000 - $100,000 per year

About the role

  • Design, develop, and maintain front-end applications using our custom SCE UI framework (built on YUI 3 and Handlebars.js), interacting with back-end services via REST APIs
  • Extend and configure back-end services (SCE BE) using Java (Jakarta EE, CDI), Groovy, and integration frameworks like Apache Camel. Implement business logic with tools such as Camunda DMN decision tables
  • Analyze, debug, and reverse-engineer a complex, mature Java codebase to troubleshoot issues, implement new features, and perform refactoring—building deep product knowledge over time
  • Work closely with business analysts and project managers to translate complex logistics requirements into robust technical solutions. Ensure customizations are well-designed, documented, and tested
  • Manage builds, dependencies, and deployments. Strictly follow Git best practices, including branching models (GitLab Flow) and solid commit strategies
  • Support the end-to-end release process for individual tenants—planning, coordinating, and executing deployments to deliver updates and new functionality
  • Actively contribute to better team practices through code reviews, modular configuration, improved documentation, and a proactive attitude toward learning and solution evolution

Requirements

  • Solid experience in back-end development with Java (Jakarta EE, CDI), Groovy, and integration frameworks like Apache Camel
  • Strong understanding of the Maven build lifecycle, including compiling the Java codebase and managing complex cross-module dependencies
  • Hands-on experience with enterprise middleware such as application servers (e.g., WildFly), message brokers (e.g., ActiveMQ), and event streaming platforms (e.g., Kafka)
  • Proficiency in JavaScript and experience with non-SPA front-ends. Direct experience with YUI is a plus; otherwise, you must be willing and able to quickly master a legacy framework
  • Proven ability to dive into a large existing codebase, understand functionality even with incomplete documentation, and deliver targeted enhancements safely
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines (Bamboo preferred) and expert-level proficiency with Git, including branching models and strategies
  • Demonstrated enthusiasm for learning, improving existing systems, and steadily increasing ownership—from understanding “how it works” to shaping “how it should evolve"
Benefits
  • Health insurance
  • Retirement plans
  • Professional development opportunities
