From a technical perspective, our back-end system deploys a service-oriented architecture, with services (some micro, some not so micro) interoperating through RESTful APIs and message queues, utilizing a technology stack of Java, Spring, Spring Boot and MariaDB (RDS), making use of a range of Amazon Web Services technologies.

You will be expected to collaborate with multiple development teams, front-end as well as back-end, and DevOps in the development, deployment, testing and maintenance of our systems.

From a process perspective, Mama Money has been growing rapidly, which means that a big challenge for us is scaling our development platforms and practices to support concurrent development of features with multiple teams collaborating.
