OPEN POSITION

# Product Engineer (Junior), Java / Kotlin

Remote · Italy · Full-time · Associate

[Apply for this role ](https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/MOLO17Srl/744000145752780-product-engineer-junior-java-kotlin?oga=true)

## Company Description

MOLO17 builds Gluesync: real-time CDC and hybrid data integration across RDBMS, NoSQL, data lakes, and event streaming. We are a product company, not a consultancy. Offices in Cupertino, CA and an R&D center in Pordenone, Italy. The product team writes Gluesync in Kotlin. Java is a fine starting point.

## Job Description

We are hiring a junior product engineer for the CET night shift.

You can live anywhere. Your working hours have to cover 22:00-06:00 Central European Time. If nights are not for you, this role is not.

What you will do:

-   Ship well-scoped Gluesync work with the product team (more pairing and review than the mid seat)
-   Own small pieces end to end: code, tests, review
-   Work with SQL and NoSQL sources (Oracle, SQL Server, IBM i / DB2, MongoDB, Kafka, and similar). IBM i, CDC, and the gnarlier bits you learn here
-   Write tests. We do not ship silent regressions
-   Take part in customer technical support on the CET night shift: troubleshoot production issues, help customers through Gluesync problems, and feed what you learn back into the product. This is part of the job, not a rare exception.

## Qualifications

Must have:

-   You have actually written Java in a job, internship, or a real shipped project. Tutorial-only Java will not pass
-   You know what Kotlin is and have written some (course, side project, or a bit at work). We do not need a year of production Kotlin. If you have never heard of it, this is not the role
-   Some REST, some SQL, Git you can use with other people
-   You can reliably work CET nights (22:00-06:00) from wherever you are

Nice to have: Ktor, Koin, Gradle, Docker, any NoSQL, Kafka.

## Additional Information

What you get: remote from any country, MacBook Pro, performance bonus, partner training (AWS, MongoDB, and similar). Compensation from 30k€.

Missing Ktor is fine. Never having shipped Java, or not knowing Kotlin exists, is not.
