Description

Mission :

For the evolutionary maintenance of our backend applications, we are looking for an experienced java backend profile for a mission until (at least) the end of 2023.

Experience with the following concepts/technologies is required:

Database design

CouchDB

Elastic (ELK stack)

PostgreSql / MySql

...

Other relevant experience:

Jira / Confluence

Experience with Infrastructure as Code

Redhat OpenShift

Our current application landscape contains multiple back-end services that need to be maintained and expanded. Updating/upgrading the basic components is therefore a continuous challenge. In addition, it is important that the data in the back-end systems is maintained as optimally as possible, whereby the speed of storage and retrieval of data must be constantly optimized without this having an impact on the front-end services.

After these updates/upgrades you will know the back-end services well, and you will be able to participate in the further evolution of these services. Depending on the allocated budgets, an extension to 2024 is possible.
