Job description

Hey you – yes, you. The one who still thinks Java is cool (because it is).

You write clean code, roll your eyes at spaghetti, and laugh in the face of 500-line methods.

If you’re a Senior Java Developer who knows your way around Spring, SQL, and the occasional “WTF code moment,” we’ve got a seat with your name on it.

Requirements

  • 5 – 8 years of Java development working experience
  • In depth working knowledge of Java language features
  • React and or Angular experience
  • Solid understanding of Object-oriented programming fundamentals
  • Extensive knowledge of design patterns and the ability to recognize and apply them (e.g. GOF patterns)
  • Solid knowledge and practical experience of at least one RDBMS, including basic DBA functions
  • Excellent knowledge of at least one client-side technology. Needs to have detailed implementation experience as well as a solid understanding of the technology specific patterns
  • Needs to have a high-level understanding of the common frameworks in the Java technology stack and needs to have detailed implementation experience in several of these frameworks.
  • Must have the ability to analyse and solve complex problems in familiar and unfamiliar technology spaces, establishing the appropriate solution patterns to be followed by the technical team.

Reference Number for this position is GZ61572 which is a contract position based in Johannesburg offering a contract rate of R600 and R700 per hour negotiable on experience and ability. Contact Garth on garthz@e-merge.co.za or call him on 011 463 3633 to discuss this and other opportunities.
