Java Software Engineer

Are you a Java Software Engineer looking for a place where you can grow your career, increase your autonomy, and have a real say in how software is built?

This is an opportunity to join a globally operating technology business with a Glasgow base, backed by 35 years of experience leading the way in its field. Their long‑term success is built on a genuine commitment to developing engineers, fostering trust, and giving people the freedom to do their best work.

You’ll work across the full software development lifecycle, contributing to business‑critical SaaS products used at scale. Day to day, you’ll be hands‑on with:

• Modern Java (Java 17+)
• Spring Boot within a microservices architecture
• SQL and relational databases (e.g. Oracle or similar) using JDBC/Hibernate
• Automated testing with JUnit, mocking frameworks, and test containers
• Applying software design patterns and clean engineering principles

You’ll collaborate closely with experienced technical leadership — including recently appointed senior hires — gaining exposure to architecture, technical decision‑making, and product direction, not just feature delivery.

There’s also strong scope to broaden your skill set. Engineers are encouraged to work with:

• Web and UI technologies such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React
• CI/CD pipelines and modern development workflows
• AI‑assisted development tools (e.g. Claude, Cursor), with an emphasis on intelligent, responsible use
• Early‑stage projects integrating agentic systems and intelligent tooling into the platform — ideal for developers who enjoy exploring emerging technology

This is a business at an exciting point of transformation, offering real opportunities to:

• Take on greater ownership and autonomy
• Influence engineering standards and technical direction
• Progress toward senior or lead‑level impact over time

You will receive a competitive salary, annual bonus, and a strong benefits package.

If you’re looking for more than just another Java role — somewhere you can learn, influence, and build a long‑term career with confidence — this is well worth a conversation.
