We're looking for a senior software engineer who enjoys solving real business problems and building systems that people can depend on.
Our projects involve everything from backend services and data processing pipelines to AI-powered applications. Some challenges require reliable APIs and distributed systems. Others involve processing large amounts of data, automating workflows, or using AI to make information more useful.
You'll help design and build these solutions from the ground up, using Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, and modern AI technologies. We value engineers who understand the bigger picture, make thoughtful technical decisions, and take ownership of what they build.
We're not looking for someone who just follows tickets. We want someone who can understand a problem, suggest a practical solution, and turn it into production-ready software. https://nextmadelabs.com/
