Description
Description
We’re looking for an experienced Backend Engineer to design and build robust, scalable microservices. You’ll work across the full backend stack — from API design through to production-grade integration testing — using modern Java and Spring technologies.
Mobility: Comfortable working from the Glasgow office 2 days per week.
Requirements
Strong hands-on experience with Java 17+ and Spring Boot 3
Proven experience building and maintaining microservices architectures
Practical experience with Kafka (producers, consumers, event-driven patterns)
Strong understanding of REST API design best practices
Proficiency with Gradle for build management
Familiarity with MapStruct and Feign
Working knowledge of domain-driven design (DDD) patterns
An integration-testing mindset — comfortable testing services in realistic, end-to-end scenarios, not just isolated units
Job responsibilities
Design, build, and maintain backend microservices using Java 17+ and Spring Boot 3
Design and implement clean, well-documented REST APIs
Build event-driven services using Kafka for asynchronous communication
Apply domain-driven design principles to structure services around business capabilities
Use MapStruct for clean object mapping and Feign for service-to-service communication
Manage builds and dependencies using Gradle
Write meaningful integration tests (not just unit tests) to ensure real-world reliability
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality, maintainable code
Nice to Have
Experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker/Kubernetes)
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines
Experience working in cloud-native environments (AWS/Azure/GCP)
What we offer
Why work at GlobalLogic
Our goal is to build an inclusive positive culture where everyone can feel comfortable being themselves, empowering our people to create their own high standards and therefore more value. We work together to promote fairness while recognising, valuing and embracing differences – providing a transparent support structure and generous training budget to help our people develop skills to progress their career. Our region also supports a hybrid model which can flex across a wide spectrum of working options determined by our business, customer and individual needs.
You’ll benefit from a comprehensive health and wellness plan, private healthcare (clinical and mental wellbeing), and discounted gym memberships. We offer a fantastic benefits package including a competitive pension scheme and recognition schemes through bonus/reward initiatives. Colleagues are entitled to an annual volunteering day – so you can take time to support a cause close to your heart. We also love to stay social at our trips to the zoo, quiz nights, sports events, theatre trips and much more.
We are an equal opportunities employer. It is our policy to promote an environment free from discrimination, harassment and victimisation.
