Java Backend Software Engineer

$64 per hour
Temporary

Kforce has a client in Westlake, TX that is seeking a Java Backend Software Engineer. Responsibilities:

  • Implement backend microservices and APIs independently within established architectural patterns
  • Write production-quality code: tested, observable, documented, and ready to operate
  • Participate actively in code reviews: provide useful feedback to peers and apply feedback to your own work promptly
  • Diagnose and resolve issues in production with appropriate urgency and communication
  • Identify scope gaps and technical risks in your work early and raise them before they become blockers
  • Learn and apply the team's engineering practices (CI/CD, observability, API design, testing) consistently
  • Apply AI-assisted development tooling as a standard part of your workflow
  • Working experience with Java and Spring Boot for backend microservice development, including RESTful API design and integration
  • Familiarity with cloud deployment (AWS preferred): deploying and operating containerized services
  • Delivery pipeline experience: source control, CI/CD workflows, and automated testing as standard practice
  • Basic observability: writing structured logs, reading dashboards, understanding what a distributed trace tells you
  • Database fundamentals: writing queries, understanding indexes, choosing appropriate data storage patterns
  • Experience with version control and collaborative development workflows (branching, pull requests, code review)
Preferred:
  • Experience in financial services or a regulated, high-reliability industry
  • Exposure to event-driven architectures or streaming systems (Kafka, SQS, or similar)
  • Familiarity with OpenAPI specification and contract-first API design
  • Experience with AI-assisted development tools (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, or similar)
Additional skills:
  • Delivers optimally on well-scoped work without needing ongoing supervision
  • Communicates clearly about progress, blockers, and scope questions; Does not go quiet when stuck
  • Takes ownership of code quality: does not ship tests as an afterthought or leave observability for someone else
  • Engages genuinely in code review: reads others' code with care, gives feedback that is specific and actionable
  • Growing technical range: actively building new skills in areas adjacent to current expertise
  • Open to AI-assisted development methods and apply them as a normal part of the workflow
