We’re now looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help shape the future of our platform. In this role, you’ll be a key technical team leader—working alongside our Principal Engineer to design scalable systems, mentor engineers, and drive high-impact solutions. You’ll be hands-on with development while also influencing the way we build, ensuring our platform remains reliable, performant, and secure as we scale.
Location: Remote (Candidate must actively reside in Ireland or UK to be considered)
What You'll Do
As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll serve as both a hands-on contributor and a technical leader—guiding architecture, mentoring teammates, and ensuring our platform is built for reliability, scalability, and security.
- Technical Leadership – Define, implement, and champion engineering best practices, coding standards, and scalable architecture principles across the team.
- Hands-on Development – Write, review, and maintain high-quality, well-tested code in Java, Spring Boot, and Hibernate, delivering both new features and platform enhancements.
- Code Reviews & Mentorship – Conduct detailed peer reviews, provide constructive feedback, and mentor junior and mid-level engineers to grow team capability.
- System Architecture – Partner with the Principal Engineer to design, evolve, and maintain secure, scalable software systems with a long-term technical vision.
- Production Issue Resolution – Take ownership of critical production issues, leading root cause analysis and driving sustainable long-term fixes.
- Collaboration – Work closely with Product, Design, and DevOps to plan, scope, and deliver features that provide measurable customer value.
- Quality & Testing – Champion robust automated testing practices (unit, integration, performance) to ensure stability and reliability at scale.
- Documentation – Maintain clear, accurate, and accessible technical documentation to support engineering and cross-functional teams.
- Continuous Improvement – Proactively identify opportunities to improve productivity, workflows, tooling, and automation; stay up to date on new technologies and advocate for adoption where appropriate.
- Security & Compliance – Implement secure coding practices and actively participate in security reviews to ensure compliance with industry and regulatory standards.
We work with modern, battle-tested tools. Experience with these is a big plus—but we value adaptability and problem-solving just as much.
- Backend: Java, Spring Boot, Hibernate
- Frontend: AngularJS
