Backend Developer – Java/Spring Boot

Start Date: ASAP
Contract | Outside IR35 | £475 per Day
Duration: Until the End of March
Location: Fully Remote

We’re partnering with a fast-paced, technology-led organisation to appoint an experienced Backend Developer on a fully remote contract. This is an excellent opportunity for a hands-on developer with strong Java and Spring Boot experience to build and develop scalable backend systems within a high-volume engineering environment. We’re particularly interested in candidates with previous experience in iGaming, betting, FinTech or another sector where reliability, scalability and performance are critical.

The Opportunity

As Backend Developer, you’ll work as part of an established engineering team to design, develop and improve backend services and microservice-based applications. You’ll use Java and Spring Boot to create reliable, scalable solutions, develop REST APIs and support systems handling high volumes of activity. This is a hands-on contract suited to someone who can work effectively at pace, contribute confidently from the outset and deliver high-quality backend solutions within a complex technical environment.

Key Responsibilities

You’ll support the development and improvement of scalable backend systems by:

  • Designing, developing and maintaining backend services using Java and Spring Boot.
  • Building and enhancing microservice-based applications.
  • Developing and integrating secure, reliable REST APIs.
  • Supporting the performance, reliability and scalability of high-volume systems.
  • Producing clean, maintainable and well-tested code.
  • Troubleshooting backend issues and implementing effective technical solutions.
  • Collaborating with other engineers and technical stakeholders throughout the development lifecycle.
  • Contributing to technical discussions, code reviews and wider engineering best practices.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
