Role summary
Seeking a senior Java developer with 12 years of experience in enterprise application modernization. The role focuses on addressing technical debt and security vulnerabilities within existing Java, Spring, and AWS codebases. Responsibilities include hands-on coding, implementing automated testing strategies, and managing vulnerabilities. Experience with microservices, distributed/event-driven architectures, CI/CD, and AWS is essential. Familiarity with AI-assisted development practices in a secure environment and Agile methodologies is preferred. This role is for an individual contributor focused on direct coding and application improvement, not new feature development or organizational architecture.
- The mandate is looking for a
senior developer with 12 years of experience who can jump right in on existing
Java, Spring, and AWS code to tackle technical debt and fix vulnerabilities,
rather than someone focused on developing new features.
- The Mythos context and
repeated mentions of security posture, vulnerability management, and
technological upgrade point to a role centered on actively modernizing an
existing application portfolio, not just a standard maintenance job.
- The note
about AI-assisted development practices, while not a dealbreaker, makes it
clear the client is interested in candidates comfortable using these tools in a
secure development setting.
- The profile combines precise technical expertise
(Java, Spring, AWS, microservices, distributed or event-driven architecture)
with the ability to shape an automated testing strategy, setting it apart from
a regular generalist application developer.
