Brief Role DescriptionWe are looking for a Contract Software Engineer II - Backend who is a solid Java developer, ready to execute independently, keep pace with team delivery, and grow fast. You take ownership of your work, speak up when you're blocked, and see every challenge as an opportunity to get better. You don't wait to be told what to do - you figure it out, ask the right questions, and get things done.
What You'll Do- Independently deliver backend features and bug fixes in Java, meeting sprint commitments and contributing to team velocity
- Write clean, well-structured code - and take pride in it
- Proactively reach out to teammates, leads, or other teams when you hit a blocker instead of going silent
- Contribute to growing the team's test coverage through unit and integration tests - not just for your own code, but also new initiatives that might need additional testing coverage
- Participate actively in Agile rituals: standups, sprint planning, and retrospectives
- Review code, give useful feedback, and receive it with an open mind
- Collaborate with senior engineers and ask good questions to level up quickly
Possible Tasks within this RoleWhat We're Looking For:Core skills- Solid proficiency in Java - you can write production-quality backend code without needing handholding
- Familiarity with Spring Boot or similar backend frameworks
- Experience working with REST APIs and relational or NoSQL databases (Postgres, MongoDB)
- Comfortable writing unit tests; integration test experience is a plus
How you work- You execute independently - you break down a task, figure out the approach, and deliver it
- You match or beat team velocity consistently; you don't let tickets sit
- You are proactive: if something is unclear or you're stuck, you reach out - you don't wait
- You take ownership of quality, including test coverage, without being asked
- You're a fast learner who treats new technology, domains, or challenges as interesting problems, not obstacles
Qualification requirementsQualifications- 5+ years of backend software development experience
- Proficiency in Java; Spring Boot experience preferred
- Experience with REST API development
- Exposure to databases: Postgres and/or MongoDB
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
Nice to Have- Experience with OCPP or EV charging domain knowledge
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices
- Experience with integration testing frameworks
Work Flexibility- Standard working hours with occasional after-hours support as needed
- Up to 5-10% domestic travel
