Senior Application Engineer

Join to apply for the Senior Application Engineer role at Swiss Re

You are a senior engineer with strong skills in Java and/or Kotlin, building secure, observable, cloud‑native services on Azure. You are comfortable designing containerized microservices, deploying to Kubernetes, and making pragmatic architectural trade‑offs. You pair strong implementation skills with the ability to step back, evaluate patterns, and propose resilient, evolvable solutions.

Core Responsibilities

• Design and build containerized microservices (Java / Kotlin) with clear domain boundaries.
• Define and maintain OpenAPI specifications; drive contract‑first API evolution.
• Implement robust API controllers (validation, versioning, idempotency, error models).
• Write high‑quality unit, integration, and contract tests (coverage + meaningful assertions).
• Instrument services with structured logging, metrics, tracing, and health probes.
