Java Developer for Teamio — a product that helps companies find the right people

Teamio is one of our most important products. Its mission is simple, but essential: it helps companies manage recruitment, work with candidates, and advertise jobs across our job portals such as Jobs.cz, Prace.cz, Práce za rohem, and Atmoskop.

Now we’re looking for a Java Developer to help us improve Teamio, evolve its architecture, and move the product another step forward. Teamio is well established on the Czech market and has ambitions that reach beyond it — so your work will have a real impact on how companies hire.

If you enjoy software development, clean code, thoughtful architecture, and working on a product used daily by recruiters and hiring teams, this might be a great fit.

What will be your job?

You will become part of the WHITE team, responsible for the parts of Teamio that recruiters and hiring teams use every day - from managing recruitment workflows and collaboration to user management, communication, and the shared platform behind these experiences.

Your work will include:

• developing and improving backend services in Java,
• collaborating on frontend features implemented in React and TypeScript,
• designing and evolving the architecture of Teamio’s product components,
• modernizing existing applications and architecture,
• designing cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code principles
• working with candidate data, job applications, and internal recruitment sources,
• working with recruitment workflows, candidate evaluation, collaboration, communication, and notifications,
• building APIs and integrations across Teamio and the wider Alma Career ecosystem,
• working on authentication, permissions, SSO, and MFA,
• developing the Teamio mobile app and its backend integrations.
• writing and maintaining automated tests,
• collaborating with other developers, product owners and teams across Alma Career.

You won’t just receive narrowly defined tasks from above. We expect you to think about how things can be improved, bring your own ideas, and actively contribute to the technical direction of the product.

This role goes beyond feature implementation. You'll participate in architectural decisions, cloud infrastructure design, operational improvements, and long-term technical evolution of the platform.

What does the WHITE team work on?

Within Teamio, the WHITE team is responsible for the parts of the product that help recruiters and hiring teams run their day-to-day work. We build and evolve the recruiter experience - from recruitment workflows and candidate evaluation to collaboration, communication, user management, permissions, authentication, notifications, and the Teamio mobile app.More specifically, this means:

More specifically, this means:

• Building and improving recruitment workflows and the recruiter-facing Teamio experience,
• Helping hiring teams collaborate on candidate evaluation and decision-making,
• Developing user management, roles, permissions, authentication, SSO, and MFA,
• Building communication and notification capabilities, including email and mobile push notifications,
• Developing and operating the Teamio mobile app for iOS and Android,
• Evolving the shared Teamio platform, APIs, and microfrontend architecture,
• Modernizing the legacy G2/Wicket parts of Teamio and moving functionality to independently deployed services,
• Working closely with RED and other Alma Career teams on shared domains and integrations.

In other words, you will work on the core experience through which recruiters and hiring managers use Teamio every day. Your code will directly shape how people organize recruitment, evaluate candidates, collaborate, and move the right applicants through the hiring process.

Tech stack you will use:

The main language of Teamio is Java. We’re not looking for someone who needs to be introduced to it from scratch — we’re looking for someone who feels at home in Java and wants to help move a large, meaningful product forward.

Your work won’t end with writing code — you’ll also work with cloud infrastructure, deployment pipelines, and services running in AWS.

We actively use modern AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code and GitHub Copilot to improve productivity, testing, debugging, documentation, and delivery effectiveness.

You’ll work with technologies and tools such as:

• Java 25,
• Spring Boot,
• SQL, PostgreSQL,
• React and TypeScript for UI parts,
• automated testing — unit tests, Selenium end-to-end tests, and acceptance tests,
• Github,
• Docker,
• AWS
• multiple environments for development, integration, and production.

We try to keep up with modern standards. You won’t find us stuck on ancient Java 6 or Java 8 leftovers. Many of our applications already run on Java 25, and we are gradually moving others there as well.

At the same time, Teamio is a product with history, real customers, and real business impact. That means our work combines new development with the careful evolution of existing systems, architecture improvements, and gradual reduction of technical debt.

How we work?

We work in an agile environment — depending on the team, either Scrum or Kanban. We have many years of experience with agile development, but we don’t follow processes for the sake of processes. We use them to support collaboration and help the team deliver a high-quality product.

We care about:

• clean and maintainable code,
• code reviews,
• automated testing,
• security and high availability,
• performance and scalability,
• sharing knowledge within the team,
• ownership and space for technical initiative.

We’re not a bank where everything is dictated from the top down. We believe good technical solutions come from teams where developers understand the product, have space to think, and are encouraged to speak up.

How do we imagine you?

You’ll be a great match if you have solid experience with backend development in Java and enjoy thinking not only about implementation details, but also about how individual parts of a system fit together.

We’d like you to have:

• strong knowledge of Java,
• know Spring Boot well
• understand REST APIs and ideally GraphQL,
• experience with object-oriented design,
• knowledge of SQL and relational databases,
• a strong sense for clean, testable, and maintainable code,
• experience with automated testing,
• have at least basic-to-intermediate experience with frontend development, ideally in React
• understand AWS cloud services and modern cloud environments,
• are willing to work with AWS CDK and infrastructure-as-code concepts,
• are interested in modern AI-assisted software development workflows
• motivation to work in a product team and think about the impact of your work.

You don’t need to know every single technology in our stack. What matters more is your willingness to learn, think in context, and actively contribute to the team.

What will earn you extra points?

It’s a plus if you have experience with:

• AWS infrastructure and cloud-native applications,
• Docker and containerized environments,
• GitHub Actions,
• performance optimization and scaling of larger applications,
• web application security,
• working on a product with a larger user base,
• architecture design and gradual modernization of existing systems,
• AI developer tools such as Claude Code or GitHub Copilot.

Getting started: what awaits you?

During your first weeks, we’ll introduce you to the product, architecture, development environment, and the way our team works. We won’t throw you into deep water without context — you’ll start with smaller tasks, get to know the key parts of Teamio, and gradually take on larger topics.

After the first month, you should understand how Teamio works, what the WHITE team is responsible for, and how our day-to-day development runs.

After three months, you’ll be actively contributing to product development, participating in technical discussions, and taking ownership of specific parts of the solution.

Why you will enjoy working with us?

• You’ll work on a product with real impact on how companies hire.
• You’ll actively use AI-assisted engineering workflows as part of daily development.
• You’ll have space to influence technical solutions, not just implement tickets.
• You’ll join an experienced team of developers who share knowledge and work together.
• You’ll work with backend, architecture, data, integrations, and performance.
• You won’t be stuck in an outdated Java world — we are gradually modernizing and moving the stack forward.
• You’ll be part of a stable company, while still having space for initiative and ownership.
