Position Senior Java Software Engineer Location Onsite 2 days a week in Orlando, FL ( Local Only) Duration- 6+ MONTHS Interview: Video Job Description 8 + Years of Exp We are hiring a Senior Software Engineer to help build and ship the next-generation Children Discovery App (CDA) for client. CDA is a location-aware operational platform used by cast and youth programs across multiple ships and resort/island locations. It supports guest registration, check-in, guests-in-care workflows, messaging, reporting, real-time room/occupant visibility, and integrations with enterprise reservation and charging systems. You will work across a multi-repo system Angular SPA, Node.js Web API, and Java core services following client's Reference Architecture (RA) patterns, CI/CD promotion through latest stage per-location production, and enterprise security (MyID/Keycloak OIDC, authz, Vault/Consul-style config). About The Project The CDA replacement program modernizes a legacy application into a modular stack: UI: Angular SPA, Express static server, Capacitor (iOS/Android), lazy-loaded feature modules (check-in, dashboard, guests-in-care, notifications, settings), i18n, Jest (80% coverage threshold) Web API: Node.js + Restify, TypeScript, OpenAPI/Swagger, authz token endpoints Core API: Java 21, Spring Boot, embedded Jetty, CXF REST, Flyway/JPA, MariaDB, Redis, STOMP WebSocket relay with room-state aggregation Domain Highlights Per-location behavior ships (Adventure, Destiny, Dream, Fantasy, Magic, Treasure, Wish, Wonder) and resorts/islands (Aulani, Castaway, LHP, etc.) with configurable flows, charging rules, and UI visibility. Real-time operations reader pulses aggregated into room occupancy snapshots pushed to the UI via WebSocket/STOMP; inactivity ( fruit punch ) alerting for guests in care. Enterprise integrations reservation/guest data, OARS eligibility, Fidelio band charging (location-dependent). Observability Grafana/Prometheus metrics, structured logging, correlation IDs. What You'll Do End-to-end feature delivery design, implement, test, and deploy user-facing and API capabilities aligned with acceptance criteria and location-config requirements. Full-stack contribution primary strength in Angular + TypeScript and/or Node.js Web APIs, with willingness to touch Java/Spring services (relay, children API, persistence) when the work spans layers. Location-aware design implement and extend configuration-driven behavior so one codebase serves many deployment targets without hard-coded location logic. Real-time UX integrate STOMP/WebSocket room state in the SPA; handle reconnect, replay on subscribe, and consistent UI state under multi-pod deployments. Security & compliance OIDC/MyID login flows, role/claims enforcement (CDA_USER, CDA_ADMIN, cast/guest authz patterns), parameterized data access, no secrets in code, safe error handling. API quality REST contract design, OpenAPI documentation, backward-compatible versioning, integration with existing RA auth interceptors and validators. Data & persistence MariaDB schema/migrations (Flyway), JPA entities, and coordination with documented MongoDB/per-location persistence strategy where applicable. DevOps collaboration Docker images, health checks, environment-specific config (Vault, mpropz), and CI pipeline fixes; promote artifacts through latest stage production locations. Code quality unit/integration tests, lint gates, code review, and clear PR descriptions (including Jira mapping and test plans). Mentorship unblock mid-level engineers, uphold RA and team conventions, and document non-obvious domain or integration behavior. Modern engineering practices use approved tools (including AI-assisted development where permitted) to accelerate delivery while maintaining test coverage, code review standards, and compliance requirements; validate all generated or suggested code and never expose guest/PII, credentials, or secrets to unapproved external tools. Required Qualifications 8+ years professional software development, with 5+ years in senior or lead IC roles on production web applications. Strong TypeScript and Angular (modern standalone/module patterns, routing, HTTP interceptors, reactive forms, testing with Jest or similar). Production experience building Node.js REST APIs (TypeScript preferred); comfort with auth middleware, cookies/tokens, and API security basics. Solid SQL and relational modeling; experience with MariaDB/MySQL or equivalent. Experience with OAuth2/OIDC enterprise SSO, JWT validation, and role-based access control. Docker and cloud-style deployment (ECS/Kubernetes or similar); understanding of health checks, env-based config, and twelve-factor practices. Strong git workflow, code review culture, and ability to work in multi-repo codebases. Excellent communication: technical design notes, stakeholder updates, and clear written PR/Jira documentation. Preferred Qualifications Java 21 and Spring Boot (JPA, Flyway, embedded servlet containers, Micrometer metrics). WebSocket/STOMP or similar real-time messaging; Redis pub/sub for multi-instance fan-out. Capacitor or hybrid mobile delivery for operational tablet apps. Experience With Enterprise Integration (reservation, POS/charging, Eligibility Services). Familiarity with WDPR Reference Architecture blocks (MyID login, mpropz, logasaurus, authz filters) or comparable large-org platform libraries. NGINX reverse proxy and local multi-service dev setups. Load/performance testing and operational runbooks for ship/resort deployments. Productive use of AI-assisted development tools (e.g. IDE agents, code review aids) with strong judgment validating output, preserving security and quality standards, and following company policy on guest/PII and credentials.
