Brand new role

Our client is seeking a versatile and hands-on Java Developer who is comfortable working across the full Java stack — from code-level changes to platform upgrades and security updates. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a collaborative team that values initiative, strong problem-solving, and a solid foundation in Java.

The successful candidate will demonstrate deep technical expertise, strong problem-solving skills, and the ability to deliver high-quality outcomes across a wide range of responsibilities, including pipeline updates, JDK upgrades, security fixes, and platform optimisation.

Key Skills Required

  • Extensive, proven experience with Java
  • Advanced knowledge of the Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and Hibernate
  • Strong experience with Apache Tomcat
  • Ability to take ownership of complex issues and deliver results under high expectations

Nice to Have:

  • Familiarity with Linux environments
  • Experience with cloud platforms such as OpenShift or AWS
  • Exposure to infrastructure-as-code tools such as Ansible and Terraform

This role suits someone who is not afraid to get stuck in across various layers of the Java ecosystem and contribute to both application development and platform support. If you're a self-starter with strong Java skills and looking for your next contract, this could be the perfect fit.
