About the role

JetBrains creates professional tools that make developers more productive and help them focus on what matters. Our websites and web services are a core part of the JetBrains ecosystem. They connect us with users worldwide, power product distribution, support learning, and enable feedback loops at scale.

We are currently looking for a Software Developer to join our Web Development team. The ideal candidate will be someone who can take ownership of services end-to-end, from architecture and implementation to deployment and long-term support.

In this role, you will:

Design and develop internal company-wide web applications and services.

Participate in the creation of solution architecture, from selecting approaches to decomposing services and defining their interactions.

Build and maintain services running in AWS and Kubernetes-based environments.

Develop tools and platforms for localization workflows and integrate them with third-party systems.

Improve the reliability, scalability, and observability of our systems.

Collaborate with other teams to evolve shared infrastructure and internal platforms.

We’ll be happy to have you on our team if you have:

Strong  3- 5 years experience in backend web development using Kotlin or Java.

Experience with Node.js.

A solid understanding of modern backend frameworks (e.g. Ktor and Spring).

Experience designing and building production-grade systems.

An understanding of distributed-system fundamentals (e.g. networking, fault tolerance, and scalability).

Experience working with cloud environments (AWS or similar).

Familiarity with containerization and orchestration.

The ability to write clean, maintainable, and well-structured code.

A willingness to take ownership of systems in production (including by offering support and assisting with continuous improvement).

Good communication skills and a collaborative mindset.

We would be especially thrilled if you have:

Experience with infrastructure as code (e.g. Terraform).

Experience with CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation.

Experience with observability tools (e.g. metrics, logging, and tracing).

Practical experience using AI tools or agents in development workflows.

Flexible work location. Enjoy the freedom to work from home or from the office.
