This initiative focuses on:
Upgrading legacy applications to modern Spring Boot versions (2.x 3.x)
Decommissioning and replacing Hazelcast across distributed systems
Refactoring applications to align with modern, cloud-ready, stateless architectures
Enhancing integration with event-driven systems using Apache Kafka
Supporting applications connected to Murex batch and real-time processing flows
This is a high-impact program in a low-latency financial environment, where system stability, performance, and correctness are critical.
We are seeking a Java developer who can design and build with minimum supervision solutions for our team. The person needs to be knowledgeable on modern software development practices including Scrums, be up to date with the latest Java tools and frameworks and be able to work with the existing team to deliver solutions. The ideal candidate will be diligent, tenacious and delivery focused with a track record of building high quality solutions that are resilient and maintainable. Use of cloud technology is increasing, so experience working with AWS would be beneficial.
Design and implement solutions for:
Spring Boot & Hazelcast upgrades (including major version transitions)
Analyze existing distributed system usage (caching, clustering, locking)
Refactor applications toward stateless, scalable microservices
Implement and optimize integrations using Kafka-based event-driven architecture
Collaborate with QA, DevOps, and architecture teams on migration and rollout strategy
Ensure high standards of performance, resilience, and fault tolerance
Participate in code reviews, technical design discussions, and production support
