Java Full stack Developer
Experience guideline: Typically 8–10 years total experience, with strong recent hands‑on delivery.
Primary Focus
• Backend‑first Java engineering role
• Full‑stack experience is beneficial, but backend capability is essential
• Working within established patterns, frameworks, and standards
Must‑Have Skills
• Java 8+ with strong practical experience (core Java, collections, exceptions, concurrency basics)
• Spring Boot / Spring Framework with 4+ years hands‑on development
• Experience building and consuming REST APIs
• Working knowledge of microservices‑based applications
• Comfortable delivering features end‑to‑end under guidance:
o Coding
o Unit testing
o Bug fixing
o Supporting deployments
Good‑to‑Have (not mandatory)
• Exposure to event‑driven patterns (e.g. messaging, async processing)
• Experience integrating with other systems or services
• Familiarity with:
o CI/CD pipelines
o Containers (Docker)
o Cloud‑hosted applications
• Some frontend exposure (e.g. React / Angular), but not required
Suppliers should submit candidates who can demonstrate:
• Strong hands‑on coding capability (not just coordination or oversight)
• Ability to work productively in an existing codebase
• Understanding of how their code runs in production
• Ability to follow engineering standards, patterns, and security practices
• Clear communication and collaboration within an engineering squad
Please do not submit candidates who are:
• Technical leads / architects seeking ownership of system design
• Pure frontend engineers with minimal backend depth
• Early‑career developers presented as “senior”
• Primarily legacy Java / non‑Spring Boot profiles
Pure support role experience with no exposure to development projects
Screening Recommendations:
• This is a hands‑on engineering role focused on building and enhancing backend services within an existing architecture. The role does not require technical leadership or ownership of overall system design.
• This is a Grade E delivery role. Candidates must be hands‑on Java engineers comfortable working within an established
