Job Description: Senior Java Developer (React Migration Project)

We are seeking a strong Java Developer to join a collaborative team supporting a large, complex legacy collections application. This role will play a key part in the ongoing modernization effort, transitioning the user interface from Java Server Faces (JSF) to React.

The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in Core Java and backend development, along with experience working with React on the frontend.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support and enhance a legacy collections application
• Contribute to the migration from JSF to React

• Utilize AI tools to assist in code conversion and modernization efforts

Qualifications:

• Strong experience in Core Java and backend development
• Proficiency with React and modern frontend frameworks
• Experience working with legacy systems and large-scale applications
• Familiarity with Agile/Kanban methodologies
• Ability to work effectively in a team-oriented environment.

Additional Information:

• Contractors are generally not required to support release deployments; occasional schedule flexibility (e.g., rare Saturday work) may be needed
