• Proven experience with Spring Boot, Spring Data, Spring Security, and Hibernate/JPA.

• Solid background in microservices architecture, Docker/Kubernetes, and CI/CD (GitLab CI).

• Knowledge of message-driven architectures, distributed systems, and idempotent pipelines.

Nice to have

• Experience with Kafka Streams, Kafka Connect, and advanced distributed system design.

About you

You’re a person who’s not afraid to get their hands dirty and get in and get the job done, while working in a small but busy global team. You’ll have a strong background in both Azure and AWS, with a focus on networking and firewalls. You enjoy working in a fast-paced busy environment, where there is always lots going on.

You’ll be encouraged to innovate and lead change, while maintaining an eye on the past to ensure we provide the best possible service to our customers.

If this sounds like you, come and join a global fintech team driving innovation across New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, and the UK. Based in our office in Petone, Wellington.
