## About the role

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to build and maintain the identity and authorization features of Gravitee Access Management (AM) — across the AM runtime and the access-management experience in Gamma, Gravitee's next generation product surface.

## What they're looking for

- We are looking for evidence that you can succeed in the role, whether gained through employment, open-source work, or equivalent practical experience:
- 5+ years building and running production backend software, on a team that ships and supports its own product, you have personally resolved production incidents
- Strong Java experience (C# accepted if the object-oriented depth is there), with Maven and a reactive stack such as Vert.x/RxJava
- A security-first mindset: secure defaults, certificate and secret handling, audit logging, and awareness of token replay, SSRF, and account-takeover risks
- Experience with safe migrations and backward compatibility across persistent data stores such as MongoDB or JDBCbacked relational databases
- Git-based workflow, code review, and writing your own automated tests
