Your Role
As a Senior Java Backend Software Engineer, you will take end-to-end ownership of complex features and system components. You will contribute actively to system and API design, participate in architecture discussions with well-formed opinions, and help raise engineering standards through code review and technical mentorship.

Your day-to-day will include:
Build, maintain, and optimise Java services running event-driven processes and RESTful APIs on AWS infrastructure
Own the design and implementation of robust, scalable solutions for VOD and live event delivery

Write and maintain automated tests and contribute to defining test approaches across the team
Participate in code review, setting and maintaining engineering standards
Identify and address performance bottlenecks, reliability risks, and technical debt proactively
Mentor mid-level engineers through review, pairing, and day-to-day technical guidance.
