Senior Software Engineer (Java / Backend) Onespot
Austin, TX

Job Description

Do you enjoy working with smart people to solve fascinating problems involving complex data platforms and recommendation systems in a modern, reactive Java stack? Do you take pride in coming up with elegant, readable, and maintainable code? Do you enjoy understanding an entire business, and how your contribution makes customers happier?

If you do, come help us bring people closer to the content that matters to them most!
