You Are:
UI/UX-minded. You care about building clean, responsive, and accessible interfaces that users love.
Full-stack capable. You’re most comfortable in React, but you can switch gears to Java Spring Boot when the project requires it.

Architect and maintain data storage solutions in PostgreSQL or other SQL-based databases, ensuring high availability, integrity, and performance.
Leverage AWS cloud services to deploy and manage backend and data engineering workloads, implementing best practices for security, cost optimization, and scalability.
Collaborate with frontend and product teams to integrate backend services seamlessly with modern UI frameworks (React, Angular, Vue).
Partner with business stakeholders to identify success metrics, develop technical solutions, and support data-driven decision-making.
Implement monitoring, logging, and automation to improve system reliability and efficiency.
Troubleshoot and optimize backend performance, ensuring seamless data flows and API interactions.
Contribute to architecture discussions, best practices, and continuous product improvements.
Who You Will Work With:
Reporting to the Software Engineering Manager, this role will collaborate closely with frontend developers, product managers, data analysts, and DevOps engineers on a regular basis.
Frequent cross-functional interaction to ensure alignment on product goals, performance metrics, and data requirements.
Must Have’s:
4+ years of hands-on experience with Java Spring Boot, including API development, microservices, and performance optimization.
3+ years of hands-on experience in modern front-end frameworks (React, Angular or Vue), including building responsive, user-friendly interfaces.
Strong experience with SQL databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server), including writing complex queries and database optimization.
Proven experience building and maintaining ETL pipelines for data ingestion, transformation, and storage.
Proficiency in AWS cloud services (Lambda, EC2, S3, RDS, Athena) and cloud architecture best practices.
Strong programming skills in Java, Python, or other modern languages for backend and data processing.
Experience with CI/CD pipelines, Docker, Kubernetes, and DevOps workflows.
Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to break down complex technical challenges.
Strong communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a cross-functional team.
Nice to Have’s:
Familiarity with data engineering principles such as big data, streaming, and event-driven architectures.
Experience with data orchestration tools (Airflow, Dagster) or real-time data frameworks (Kafka, Spark).
Knowledge of security best practices and compliance in cloud-based applications.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for OPENLANE. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
