About this role
Zensar Technologies is looking for a backend engineer with solid Java or Kotlin experience to design and maintain RESTful APIs and microservices. You'd work across the full stack—from Spring Boot development and database optimization to AWS deployment and CI/CD automation with Azure DevOps. The role expects you to contribute meaningfully to system architecture discussions, write testable code, and collaborate across product, QA, DevOps, and frontend teams in an agile environment.
This position suits someone with at least five years of backend development experience who is comfortable moving between Java/Kotlin, relational and NoSQL databases, and cloud infrastructure. You'll need hands-on familiarity with AWS services (EC2, Lambda, RDS, DynamoDB), Spring Boot modules, and CI/CD workflows. Beyond technical depth, the role values problem-solving, code quality discipline, and the ability to mentor junior developers and adapt as technologies evolve. It's based in India and requires in-office attendance.
