About the role

We're looking for a Senior React/Java Full Stack Developer with experience in modern systems and environments with strong expertise in React and front-end development, along with hands-on experience in Java. It's important to note that this position is not for a senior back-end Java developer. You'll be joiningour high-performing team building our Internal Developer Portal that accelerates software delivery across the enterprise. This is a fast-paced, high-impact role where you'll own features end-to-end — from React frontends to Spring Boot microservices — and ship code that developers depend on daily.

What you'll do here:

Backend (Spring Boot / Java)

• Design, build, and operate Spring Boot 3 microservices (Java 17/21) within a distributed architecture that includes event orchestration, event processing, notification, work-item tracking, file upload (AWS S3), and service discovery (Eureka).

• Own database schema evolution using Liquibase against PostgreSQL, and write performant JPA/Hibernate queries with Hypersistence Utils for advanced column types.

• Implement and extend our custom workflow/flow engine built on Spring Integration, including authoring reusable event tasks (Git, GitHub Enterprise, Jira, SSH, email) and worker services.

• Harden security across services using Spring Security, OAuth2 (client + resource server), JWT (jjwt), Azure AD SSO, and HashiCorp Vault for secrets management.

• Build and maintain the API Gateway (Spring Cloud Gateway WebMVC) that fronts all backend services.

• Produce clean, self-documenting APIs with Springdoc OpenAPI (Swagger UI) and HATEOAS where appropriate.

Frontend (React / TypeScript)

• Develop and ship features across a Turborepo monorepo containing multiple single-page applications using React 19, TypeScript, and Vite.

• Build rich, accessible UIs with Material UI, Material React Table and D3-based data visualizations.

• Manage client-side state with Zustand and TanStack React Query; consume both REST and GraphQL APIs (URQL).

• Write thorough unit tests with Vitest + Testing Library and end-to-end tests with Playwright; maintain high code coverage via V8 coverage reporting.

• Contribute to a shared component library and design system documented in Storybook; enforce code quality with ESLint, Prettier, Knip (dead-code detection), Husky, and lint-staged.

Cross-Cutting

• Champion code quality through peer code reviews, Checkstyle, Spotless formatting, SonarQube analysis, and JaCoCo coverage gates.

• Ship containerized services via Docker multi-stage builds, Helm charts, and Jenkins CI/CD pipelines targeting OpenShift (ROSA), with integrated Nexus IQ, Twistlock, and Polaris security scanning.

• Write comprehensive JUnit 5 unit tests, Spring Boot integration tests, and WireMock-based service tests on the backend; maintain Playwright E2E suites on both Java and JavaScript sides.

• Collaborate closely with product owners and fellow engineers in an agile environment with frequent release cadences.

• Mentor and guide junior developers, drive technical decisions, and contribute to architecture discussions for a platform that is actively scaling.

What you bring to the table:

Must-Have

• 8+ years of professional software development experience with a strong full stack track record.

• Deep hands-on expertise with Java 17+ and the Spring ecosystem (Spring Boot 3, Spring Security, Spring Data JPA, Spring Cloud).

• Production experience building modern React applications with TypeScript, including state management (Zustand, React Query, or equivalent) and component libraries (MUI or similar).

• Solid understanding of relational databases (PostgreSQL), schema migration tools (Liquibase or Flyway), and ORM frameworks (Hibernate/JPA).

• Experience with RESTful API design, OpenAPI/Swagger, and at least working knowledge of GraphQL.

• Proficiency with containerization (Docker), CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or similar), and Kubernetes or OpenShift deployments.

• Strong testing discipline — you write unit, integration, and E2E tests as a matter of course (JUnit 5, Vitest, Playwright, WireMock).

• Undergraduate degree in Computer Science or any equivalent combination of education and experience.

Nice-to-Have

• Experience with Spring Cloud Gateway, Netflix Eureka, or similar service-mesh/discovery patterns.

• Familiarity with Helm chart authoring and OpenShift/ROSA operations.

• Hands-on experience with HashiCorp Vault, OAuth2/OIDC flows, and Azure AD integration.

• Exposure to monorepo tooling (Turborepo, pnpm workspaces) and build optimization (Vite, SWC).

• Experience with workflow/orchestration engines or Spring Integration.

• Comfort with MkDocs, Storybook, or other developer-experience documentation tooling.

• Familiarity with AWS S3 and the AWS SDK for Java.

Who thrives on this team:

• You take initiative and run toward problems, not away from them.

• You communicate clearly and directly — in PRs, in design docs, and in person.

• You're energized by fast iteration, tight deadlines, and the accountability that comes with shipping a platform other teams depend on.

• You care deeply about code quality, developer experience, and leaving the codebase better than you found it.

• You're comfortable context-switching between backend and frontend work within the same sprint.

• For candidates located in Quebec, bilingualism is required considering the necessity to interact on a regular basis with English-speaking colleagues across the country.

• No Canadian work experience required however must be eligible to work in Canada.
