This opportunity is 100% remote.

We are looking for a Senior Full-Stack Developer to join our fast-paced enterprise engineering team. In this senior-level role, you will champion legacy modernization initiatives, systematically breaking down monolithic architectures, legacy databases, and older web frameworks into high-transaction web interfaces and scalable, modern backend solutions across dynamic hybrid infrastructure setups (On-Premises Open Shift & AWS Cloud).

The ideal candidate thrives in aggressive, high-velocity delivery environments, possesses a proven track record of migrating legacy enterprise systems, values proactive team leadership, and actively leverages modern AI-assisted engineering tools to accelerate software development life cycles without sacrificing code quality.

Candidates must be a U.S. Citizen with an active Department of Treasury MBI.

• Legacy Modernization:
  Analyze, decouple, and migrate legacy enterprise systems (monoliths, older Java frameworks, complex store procedures) into a clean, decoupled microservices or modular architecture.
• Front-End Architecture:
  Design and optimize highly responsive web UIs using React, transforming legacy server-rendered views or desktop applications into sleek interfaces while managing complex client-side caching via Redux.
• Back-End Engineering:
  Build secure, high-throughput RESTful services using Java and Spring Boot, while implementing automated, high-volume bulk data pipelines via Spring Batch to replace outdated legacy batch processing routines.
• Data Migration & Management:
  Model structured corporate data using JPA and Hibernate ORM to bridge legacy data stores with modern Oracle production databases.
• Test Automation Execution:
  Author and maintain automated end-to-end testing frameworks, mock environments, and isolation tests using Selenium, JUnit 5, and Mockito to ensure zero regressions during modernization phases.
• Hybrid Infrastructure & Dev Ops:
  Author and maintain automated CI/CD workflows using Git Hub Actions to cleanly package, containerize, and deploy modernized services across AWS Cloud and Open Shift Container Platform environments.
• AI-Driven Delivery:
  Integrate generative AI tools (Git Hub Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude) into daily workflows to drastically accelerate boilerplate generation, legacy code refactoring, and query optimization.
• Agile
  
  Collaboration:
  
  Partner closely with architectural leads, product owners, and QA engineers within highly demanding Sprint cycles to ship reliable, well-documented code under tight deadlines.

• 10–12 years of professional experience in enterprise-grade software engineering, with a strong emphasis on system transformations, refactoring legacy codebases, and application modernization strategies.

  Spring Batch (Job, Step, Chunk-based processing configurations).
• Data & Relational: JPA / Hibernate, Oracle DB (SQL optimization, indexing, migrating legacy stored procedures), and H2 Database (for in-memory testing).
• Ecosystem Tools:
  Eclipse IDE, Maven.

• Back-End Unit & Mock Testing:
  Advanced capability with JUnit 5 and Mockito for structural logic isolation, stubbing behaviors, and legacy code behavioral verification.
• Front-End Unit Testing: UI isolation and state tracking using Jest and React Testing Library.
• Web UI Automation:
  Strong hands-on experience building and maintaining automated UI regression suites using tools like Selenium Web Driver (Java or JavaScript bindings).

• Cloud & Hosting Platforms:
  Hybrid environment design spanning AWS (Amazon Web Services) and Open Shift Container Platform (OCP).
• CI/CD Pipeline:
  Git Hub Actions workflow orchestration (integrating automated execution of unit, mocking, and…
