We’re recruiting for a stable, mission-driven technology team based in Columbus, OH. This role requires working onsite in a hybrid schedule three days per week and is best suited for a Senior Java engineer who already lives in the Columbus area and is seeking a long-term, hands-on technical role with real influence.

• Contribute to architecture decisions and coding standards

• Work with NoSQL databases supporting data-intensive systems

• Collaborate with engineering and product partners in a hybrid environment

• Participate in code reviews and continuous platform improvements

What You’ll Bring

• Minimum of 7 years of professional software development experience

• 5+ years of hands-on Java development

• Experience with NoSQL technologies (MongoDB, Cassandra, Hadoop, or similar)

• Background working with distributed backend systems

• Strong ownership mindset and follow-through

• Preference for candidates with stable, longer-term tenure

• Formal technical education or equivalent experience

Role Notes

• Hybrid schedule: onsite Monday, Tuesday, plus one additional day each week

• Candidates should already be local to the Columbus, OH area

• Relocation assistance is not available

• Visa sponsorship is not available

This role is ideal for a seasoned Java engineer in the Columbus area who values stability, technical ownership, and meaningful backend work.
