(Prior Capital One do not have to)
Position Overview
We are seeking an autonomous, highly skilled Senior Backend Java Developer to join our newly formed Customer Entity team. This is a high-visibility, "startup-style" initiative focused on architecting and building a next-generation Business Application Engine from the ground up.
The ideal candidate will focus entirely on backend software engineering, writing robust core Java programs that create, orchestrate, and influence complex enterprise business rules and operational processes. This role requires a self-directed developer who can leverage internal custom tools, navigate cloud-native serverless infrastructure, and collaborate effectively with architectural leads with minimal oversight. Prior experience consulting within the Capital One ecosystem is highly preferred.
Key Responsibilities
Core Backend Development: Design, develop, and deploy high-performance backend microservices and application engines using Core Java (70%+ of the daily workload; no UI development required).
Business Engine Automation: Write clean, modular code to influence complex business processes, translate business requirements into programmatic logic, and configure custom business rules tables (e.g., Camunda DFI/DFRA).
Cloud Ingestion & Orchestration: Build and support scalable, cloud-native event streams utilizing AWS Lambdas and AWS Fargate containers.
Platform Stability & Optimization: Monitor application health, troubleshoot backend execution issues, identify root causes, and optimize performance under high transactional volumes.
Agile Integration: Participate actively in Agile ceremonies including daily standups, sprint planning, and backlog refinement. Use internal custom automated tools to maintain code compliance and delivery timelines.
Required Qualifications & Technical Stack
Java Mastery: 7+ years of deep Core Java development experience, including object-oriented design patterns, multi-threading, and backend service construction.
AWS Cloud-Native Scale: Proven hands-on experience utilizing serverless cloud components, specifically AWS Lambdas and AWS Fargate for container orchestration.
Business Rules Logic: Direct experience working on or building business rule applications, workflow engines, or enterprise process calculators.
DevOps & Infrastructure: Solid proficiency with Docker containerization, Git version control, and automated CI/CD deployment pipelines (e.g., Jenkins).
Data Integration: Comfortable integrating backend logic with modern cloud data systems (e.g., Snowflake, relational databases) and application monitoring suites (Splunk).
Soft Skills: Outstanding professional communication habits, an independent working style, and the ability to articulate technical ideas clearly to technical panels.
Capital One: Prior experience navigating internal Capital One custom development frameworks, deployment gates, and architectural compliance rules is an elite plus.
Process Engines: Exposure to decision-table frameworks.
Interview Process
Single Round Panel: A 1-round technical panel interview with the team leads and hiring manager. No live coding exercises required; the evaluation will focus strictly on system design, technical depth, past project execution, and communication.
