Role Description

We’re looking for a talented Backend Developer to join our growing team in Budapest, Hungary. In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to design, develop, and maintain applications that drive our organization’s core business processes.

You will primarily focus on back-end development using Java and Spring technologies (Spring, Spring Boot), working with PostgreSQL databases in a microservices architecture.
