Are you a senior-level expert ready to untangle a complex microservices ecosystem and lead a critical digital transformation?
We are partnering with a leading German-headquartered retail innovator as they modernise their proprietary, cloud-native customer relationship management platform. This isn't just an "off-the-shelf" CRM—it is the heartbeat of the company’s customer interactions, powering high-level insights and driving growth in turnover for a major European marketplace.
We are looking for a Senior Developer who possesses a rare blend of deep Java expertise and a "DevOps mindset" to standardise, clean, and evolve a 90-microservice landscape. This is a high-impact role in which you will serve as a technical mentor and strategic problem-solver.
Your Mission \& Impact:
As a Senior Developer you will be the driving force behind bringing a complex system up to enterprise-grade standards. You will transition the platform away from legacy code and into a scalable, manageable future.
Your key responsibilities will include:
Redesigning and cleaning up the infrastructure and microservices to ensure they are robust, manageable, and aligned with internal architectural standards.
Leading the migration away from Scala legacy code toward a clean, high-performance Java/Spring Environment.
Refining the IaC landscape (Terraform/Ansible) and improving the reliability of the Kubernetes (GKE) and Elastic Cloud environments.
Moving beyond "maintenance" to implement new features, including AI-driven initiatives for customer performance prediction and turnover growth.
What You'll Bring:
We need a proactive "owner" who sees a mess and feels an urge to fix it. The ideal candidate will have:
Mastery of Java and Spring Boot
Proficiency with Terraform and Ansible to manage a cloud-native ecosystem.
Experience managing or migrating complex microservice architectures (ideally 50+ services).
Exceptional communication and ownership skills. You aren't just a "task receiver"; you are someone who identifies problems and proposes solutions.
Experience in Retail, E-commerce, or CRM systems is highly advantageous.
Company \& Culture:
You will join the Technology and Digital Solutions department, the central hub of the company's innovation. The team is currently at a turning point; following the departure of external consultants, there is a massive opportunity to take the reins and shape the platform’s future.
The culture here values long-term relationships, transparency, and agility. You will work in an environment that rewards independent thought and provides the stability of a market leader while tackling complex technical challenges.
Compensation \& Work Arrangement:
Budget Range:
€90,000 - 100,000 EUR (depending on experience).

* If living \<80km from the office: 3 days per week on-site. If living \>80km from the office: 4 days per month on-site.
