Together, you’ll build and evolve the backend systems that support digital mobility services, with a focus on reliable distributed architectures, data consistency, and high-quality software.

🚀 Your mission

You’ll design and develop Java-based backend services, helping the team solve complex challenges around transactions, event processing, concurrency, and data integrity. You’ll take part in technical decisions, explain the trade-offs behind your solutions, and work closely with Product Owners, QA, and other engineering teams.

What you’ll do:

• Design, build, and maintain backend services using Java and Spring.
• Develop and evolve microservices and distributed systems for digital mobility services.
• Work with transactional processes in Spring, understanding transaction boundaries and their implications.
• Build reliable integrations and event-driven flows using Kafka or an equivalent messaging platform.
• Address concurrency challenges, race conditions, locking, and data integrity.
• Work with relational databases, including query performance, indexes, and troubleshooting.
• Create and maintain automated tests, collaborating closely with QA.
• Contribute to architectural decisions and communicate the trade-offs of different solutions.
• Collaborate with client and adesso teams in an international, cross-functional environment.

What we’re looking for:

• Strong experience developing backend applications with Java and Spring Framework (+6 years).
• Practical understanding of transactions, including their limits and behaviour in Spring applications.
• Experience with microservice architectures and distributed systems.
• Knowledge of Kafka or an equivalent messaging platform, including partitions, event ordering, consumers, and failure handling.
• Ability to reason about concurrency, race conditions, locking, and data integrity.
• Experience with relational databases, indexes, and performance analysis.
• Ability to design solutions and clearly explain their trade-offs.
• Experience creating and maintaining automated tests, and collaborating with QA teams.
• Clear communication skills and confidence working with technical and non-technical stakeholders in English.

Valuable experience:

• Patterns such as transactional outbox, idempotency, read models, and event-driven processing.
• Hexagonal architecture, Domain-Driven Design (DDD), and API design.
• Data migrations or system integrations with consistency requirements.
• Kubernetes, CI/CD, monitoring, and production troubleshooting.
• Practical use of AI coding assistants, including spec-driven development, test generation, or agents configured with project rules.
• Technical leadership, participation in architecture decisions, or coordination with Product Owners, QA, and other teams.

What We Offer:

• Competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package, including private health insurance.
• Agile and lean organization with optimized work processes.
• Participation in international, high-impact projects.
• A hybrid work model for greater flexibility.
• A structured individual development plan covering both soft and technical training programs, certifications, and language learning.
