Do you love coding? Are you at home working on enterprise-grade, large-scale web applications?

EngageSciences is looking for a talented senior developer (Java/Grails, back-end) who wants to be part of building a new cloud-based service. You'll get to work with modern technologies and frameworks like jQuery, Flex and Grails; with cloud-based services such as Amazon EC2; and with social networks like Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. You would work on the server-side, helping us define the overall solution as well as developing and owning key components of the service and framework.

We think the following skills are key to the role:

• 5+ years Java development experience with good knowledge of frameworks such as Spring and Hibernate, in a large-scale, web application context


• Experience with a scripting language, ideally Groovy, but familiarity of other scripting languages such as PHP, Ruby or Python will help


• Experience with Grails will be a major plus, otherwise familiarity with other web MVC frameworks will help


• Good low-level Java knowledge able to work with and explain caching techniques, concurrency, profiling, efficient collection classes, data structures etc


• Comfortable understanding how to scale web applications, tune performance, and how to design for resiliency and reliability


• A structured developer who understands the need for source control, well-structured code-base, repeatable deployment procedures, nightly builds etc


• We are light on process and focused on results, but you should be comfortable working in a lightweight agile process


• If you have a background in maths and statistics, or are familiar with A/B and MVT testing this would be a major plus
