Summary of the Role:
Design, build, and operate cloud-native backend services using Java (Spring Boot) and Python on AWS (Lambda, Step Functions). Develop and maintain PostgreSQL data models and modern UI components (Svelte/React/Angular/Vue). Improve CI/CD, observability, automated testing, and operational runbooks. Participate in incident triage, performance tuning, architecture, and specification-driven development while responsibly leveraging enterprise AI-assisted development tools.
Why Revature
We're one of the largest employers of emerging tech talent in the U.S., partnering with Fortune 500 companies, major system integrators, and government contractors. This role is a direct path into a full-time developer job with an established client.
Job Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and deliver scalable, resilient backend services using Java (Spring Boot) and Python.
- Build cloud-native components on AWS, leveraging managed services such as AWS Lambda and AWS Step Functions (plus related services such as API Gateway, SQS/SNS, CloudWatch as applicable).
- Design and optimize data models and queries in PostgreSQL, ensuring performance, integrity, and maintainability (schema design, indexing, migrations) and develop and maintain user-facing features using Svelte or another modern UI framework (e.g., React/Angular/Vue), integrating with backend APIs and ensuring a high-quality user experience.
- Collaborate across backend, UI, and product to translate requirements into clear UI behavior, usability, and accessibility considerations, and produce or contribute to architecture and design artifacts; ensure design constraints are met in code.
- Implement and improve CI/CD pipelines and engineering standards (code quality, security scanning, observability, deployment automation).
- Participate in end-to-end delivery, including supporting applications running in production and test environments to ensure stability, performance, and availability, and perform incident triage, troubleshooting, and root-cause analysis across services, workflows, and databases; drive fixes through to resolution and prevent recurrence.
- Improve observability (logs, metrics, traces, dashboards, alerts) and operational runbooks to reduce mean time to detect/restore and improve resilience, and contribute to engineering communities of practice and foster a culture of inclusion, accountability, and continuous learning.
- Demonstrate a learning mindset: ramp up quickly, run pragmatic experiments/spikes, and apply new technologies where they add value and use AI-assisted development techniques (where approved) to accelerate implementation (scaffolding, test creation, refactoring, documentation, troubleshooting) while validating correctness and security.
- Practice specification-driven development: translate requirements into clear technical designs (APIs, workflows, data contracts, UI behavior), define acceptance criteria, and deliver against functional and non-functional needs.
- Leverages enterprise-authorized AI coding assist tools within the work environment to improve code quality, delivery speed, and productivity across complex deliverables (e.g., code generation/refactoring, unit test creation, documentation), while validating outputs through peer review, automated testing, and secure coding standards; contributes learnings and reusable patterns to improve broader team effectiveness.
- Applies knowledge of tools within the Software Development Life Cycle toolchain, including enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development and automation capabilities, to improve the value realized by automation.
Skills Required
- Formal training or certification in software engineering and 3+ years applied experience
- Hands-on experience in system design, application development, testing, and operational stability
- Strong proficiency in Java (Spring Boot) and/or Python in production
- Experience delivering on AWS using managed services/serverless patterns (including Lambda and Step Functions)
- Solid experience with relational databases, including PostgreSQL (data modeling, SQL performance tuning, migrations)
- Front-end development experience with modern frameworks (Svelte, React, Angular, Vue) and ability to integrate with backend APIs
- Strong understanding of SDLC and agile delivery practices, CI/CD, automated testing, resiliency, and security fundamentals
- Experience providing production and non-production application support, monitoring, troubleshooting, and incident/problem management
- Hands-on experience using enterprise-authorized AI-assisted software development tools and ability to validate and refine AI outputs
- Understanding of responsible AI use, data sensitivity, and secure handling of inputs/outputs in engineering workflows
- Ability to produce or contribute to architecture and design artifacts and specification-driven development (APIs, workflows, data contracts)
- Experience improving observability (logs, metrics, traces, dashboards, alerts) and operational runbooks
- Demonstrated curiosity, adaptability, and ability to ramp up quickly and try new technologies
- Familiarity with event-driven architecture, workflow orchestration, and distributed system patterns
- Observability and production excellence experience (SLOs, logging/metrics/tracing, alerting)
- Experience with API design (REST) and contract testing
- Background in lending/credit domain
- Knowledge or hands-on experience with Svelte UI development
Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills
- Familiarity with modern front-end technologies
- Exposure to cloud technologies
- Familiarity with event-driven architecture, workflow orchestration, and distributed system patterns.
