You present your solutions to customers and stakeholders, process feedback, and defend well-founded technical choices. You don't code alone: AI is your daily pair-programming partner, and you know how to wield tools like GitHub Copilot to write cleaner code faster, catch bugs before they hatch, and spend your brainpower on the architecture decisions that actually need a human.

You have strong, demonstrable experience with Spring Boot, JPA/Hibernate, Jenkins, Maven, Docker, Kubernetes/OpenShift, Postgres, and message brokers.

Experience with a complex project, Domain Driven Design/Clean Code/TDD, BPMN & CMMN, OAuth2, or GitHub Copilot is a strong asset Bonus points if Apache Camel feels like second nature to you — routing messages between systems without breaking a sweat is exactly the kind of integration wizardry we're after.
