About this role
Product Engineer (Mid), Java / Kotlin
MOLO17 builds Gluesync: real-time CDC and hybrid data integration across RDBMS, NoSQL, data lakes, and event streaming. We are a product company, not a consultancy. Offices in Cupertino, CA and an R&D center in Pordenone, Italy. The product team writes Gluesync in Kotlin. Java is a fine starting point.
We are hiring a mid product engineer for the CET night shift.
You can live anywhere. Your working hours have to cover 22:00-06:00 Central European Time. If nights are not for you, this role is not.
What you will do:
- Ship features on Gluesync with the product team
- Own small-to-medium work end to end: design, code, tests, review
- Work with SQL and NoSQL sources (Oracle, SQL Server, IBM i / DB2, MongoDB, Kafka, and similar)
- Keep quality high: automated tests, no silent regressions
- Take part in customer technical support on the CET night shift: troubleshoot production issues, help customers through Gluesync problems, and feed what you learn back into the product. This is part of the job, not a rare exception.
Qualifications
Must have:
- At least 4 years building backend services in Java
- At least 1-2 years of Kotlin in production (the product is Kotlin; Java gets you in the door, Kotlin is how you ship)
- REST APIs, SQL, and at least one NoSQL store
- You write tests and use Git like a teammate
- You can reliably work CET nights (22:00-06:00) from wherever you are
Nice to have:
- Ktor, Koin, Gradle
- Docker / Kubernetes
- Kafka or other event streaming
- Prior CDC or database replication
Additional Information
What you get:
- Remote from any country
- MacBook Pro
- Performance bonus
- Partner training (AWS, MongoDB, and similar)
- Compensation from 40k€
Missing a piece of the stack is fine if you learn fast. Never having shipped Java, or not knowing Kotlin, is not.
