Senior Software Engineer

Senior Java Engineer – Remote (EU)

You must be based in the EU – applications from outside this remit will be disregarded.

My client is a well-established payments technology business with a large, actively modernised Java platform. This is a hands-on senior engineering role working in small, autonomous teams focused on outcomes over process.

What you’ll be doing:

• Designing and developing backend services, REST APIs and asynchronous messaging systems on a Java and Spring platform
• Working across a large, long-lived payments codebase – balancing new feature delivery with ongoing modernisation
• Collaborating closely with a cross-functional team through the full lifecycle from requirements through to release, including deployment to test and production environments
• Applying AI-assisted coding tools (Claude Code and others) with genuine judgement – this is treated as a core engineering skill here, not an afterthought

What you’ll need:

• 5-7 years of professional Java and Spring development experience
• Solid server-side engineering fundamentals – REST APIs, asynchronous messaging, relational databases
• Comfortable working in large, multi-module codebases
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a self-starter mentality
• Degree in Computer Science or a related field

Nice to have:

• Experience with Oracle and Hibernate
• Familiarity with BDD and CI/CD practices
• Hands-on experience with AI coding tools such as Claude Code
