Job Description
Senior Java/Kotlin Developer
Malt
• Collaborative Product Leadership: You'll establish a strong partnership with Product Managers and Designers to translate user needs into innovative technical reality. • Take the lead: You’ll own your features end-to-end. From first sketch to release (and beyond). You’re empowered to make decisions and trusted to do what’s right for the product. • Build smart, ship fast: We deploy to production around 70 times a week. You’ll help us keep that rhythm by balancing speed, quality, and business impact. • Be a partner: You bring strong opinions, backed by experience, and you’re not afraid to challenge the status quo when it makes sense. • AI-Augmented Craft: You are curious about (or already using) tools like Cursor, Gemini or Claude Code. • Knowledge Multiplier: As a senior, you’ll help the team navigate this new AI landscape. You’ll share best practices on prompt engineering, AI-driven refactoring, and maintaining a high "quality bar" in an automated world.
Job Requirements
- Bring 6+ years of professional software development experience, including a first role within a product company (SaaS, fintech, marketplace, etc.)
- Demonstrate deep proficiency in Java or Kotlin, with confidence in navigating complex backend architectures, APIs, and data models.
- Product-First Champion: You think beyond the code, driven by curiosity about the user's "why." You proactively propose improvements and champion end-to-end feature ownership from conception to delivery.
- Pragmatic Architect: You drive architectural decisions, leveraging patterns like Hexagonal Architecture for modularity and testing. You skillfully balance long-term scalability with the need to iterate quickly
- AI Empowerment: You view AI as an accelerating force, effectively delegating routine tasks to tools while remaining the strategic "Pilot" responsible for quality, integrity, and preventing architectural drift.
- Full Lifecycle Stewardship: You maintain stewardship over the entire feature lifecycle. From building CI/CD and testing to ensuring observability and monitoring. Shipping is just the start; you are dedicated to quality, longevity, and scalable performance.
- Fluent in English, you are comfortable speaking and writing in an English-speaking environment.
Benefits
- Onboarding: Before easing into your new role, you’ll spend your first week learning about our culture, products, and services with other new joiners at our office in Paris
- Equity: Every Malter is entitled to stock options
- Malt sabbatical: Every three years, all Malters are entitled to a one month fully paid sabbatical leave
- Free books: If you’re interested in learning more about any topic relevant to Malt’s business, just tell us the books you’d like to read, and we’ll order them for you—without any questions asked or approval processes to follow
- Team building events organized every year
