Senior Backend Developer, Serbia
We’re looking for a Senior Backend Developer who challenges assumptions, builds with intention, and thrives in a fast-moving, AI-driven environment.
At 3ap, engineers own their work end-to-end. Our teams run on separate projects but solve hard problems together, share what they learn, and call out bad assumptions, including their own.
What we need:
- 5+ years with Java/Spring
- Solid REST API design and integration experience
- Hands-on with Docker, Kubernetes, Jenkins, and OpenShift
- Rigorous about testing, especially where AI outputs are involved
- Comfortable with API tools like Postman or Insomnia
- You think about the full product, not just your layer. A bad integration can sink a good solution
- You don’t stop at “it works.” You look for the flaw in the logic before someone else finds it in production
- You pick up new tools fast. The AI landscape shifts week to week, and waiting to learn something familiar isn’t an option
- You treat AI output as a draft, not a deliverable. You build guardrails, test rigorously, and verify manually
- You’ve used GitHub Copilot, Claude, or similar in your actual workflow
- You communicate clearly and don’t need much hand-holding to unblock yourself
- University degree in CS or equivalent
- Fluent English
Useful, but not required:
- WebFlux / reactive programming
- Node.js, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, React, Angular, or Vue
- CI/CD and DevOps hands-on experience
- Prompt engineering or multi-step AI workflows
- Comfort and openness to working with Python. Many modern AI tools and frameworks are built with Python at their core, so a willingness to learn and use it is important.
- Background in insurance or finance
- Any German
What you get:
- A team of 50+ professionals in a people-first culture, flat structure, and no bureaucracy
- Work that uses current technology, including AI in production
- Flexible hours, hybrid work
- 25 vacation days + 2 extra 3ap holidays
- Private pension, private health insurance, 24/7 accident insurance
- Maternity and paternity leave support
- Team events and an employee referral program
