Requirements for the candidate
Has designed and delivered production e-commerce platforms on Broadleaf Commerce, including customizing and extending its core modules: catalog, pricing and offers, cart and checkout, order management, and the admin console.
Deep Java and Spring (Spring Boot, Spring Data/JPA, Hibernate) experience at an architect level, and can explain framework-level design decisions, not only use them.
Has defined target architectures for commerce systems and can justify the trade-offs: when to extend Broadleaf versus building custom services, and monolith versus microservices.
Has designed integrations between a commerce platform and surrounding enterprise systems, such as ERP, OMS, PIM, payment gateways, tax, and inventory, using REST APIs and messaging.
Has addressed performance, scalability, and availability for customer-facing storefronts under peak traffic, using caching, load testing, and database tuning.
Can lead technical discussions with client stakeholders, document architecture decisions, and guide an engineering team through implementation.
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent is required
Would be a plus
Experience with Broadleaf Microservices: Spring Cloud, event-driven messaging with Kafka or RabbitMQ, and deployment on Kubernetes or Helm.
Commerce search experience with Apache Solr or Elasticsearch, including relevance tuning and faceting.
Experience upgrading or migrating Broadleaf versions, or replatforming from another commerce engine to Broadleaf or away from it.
Experience with a GCP, CI/CD pipelines, and observability tooling.
B2B commerce features such as account hierarchies, price lists, quotes, and approvals, or multi-site and multi-tenant setups.
Experience with headless or composable commerce, where Broadleaf APIs serve a separate frontend such as React or Next.js.
