Build and modernize cloud-first, data-focused backend microservices using Java and Spring Boot. Design scalable APIs, optimize SQL and stored procedures, integrate with cloud and legacy systems, deploy to Kubernetes with Helm, collaborate with data teams, and ensure testing, CI/CD, and production reliability.
While primarily remote, this role requires occasional visits to the office in Coimbra or in Aveiro. We plan to open offices in Porto in the future. This approach gives team members the flexibility to work remotely while also coming together in the office for collaboration and teamwork.
