Senior Java Data Platform Engineer; Batch & AWS

Description: Our client, a leader in their industry, has an excellent opportunity for a Senior Java Data Platform Engineer to work on a 12-month contract position working hybrid in Westlake, TX, two weeks per month. Candidates local to Dallas, TX are preferred.

We are seeking a Senior Java Data Engineer to build and operate enterprise‑scale batch and data integration pipelines. This role sits at the intersection of Java backend engineering, data processing, and Dev Ops ownership. This is not a Python/Spark analytics data engineering role. The core data pipelines are implemented in Java using Spring Batch, with full responsibility for CI/CD, cloud deployment, and production support.

If you are a Java engineer who enjoys building reliable, high‑volume batch systems and owning them end‑to‑end in production, this role is a strong fit.

Due to client requirement, applicants must be willing and able to work on a W2 basis. For our W2 consultants, we offer a great benefits package that includes Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits, 401k with company matching, and life insurance.

• Design, develop, and maintain large-scale batch and ETL pipelines using Spring Batch
• Build and optimize high-volume data ingestion and transformation workflows
• Modernize legacy pipelines and migrate to AWS cloud-native architectures
• Deploy and maintain CI/CD pipelines, containerized Java apps, and infrastructure via Kubernetes and Terraform
• Collaborate with stakeholders and mentor junior engineers to deliver robust, production-ready batch solutions

• Strong Java backend development experience, including Spring Batch
• Hands‑on expertise with AWS services and cloud‑based data platforms
• Proven experience building and supporting Java‑based ETL pipelines (Spring Batch or similar) in production environments
• Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure‑as‑Code (Terraform or Cloud Formation)
• Strong SQL skills and experience integrating with relational databases and Snowflake
• Proven experience owning CI/CD pipelines and production systems end‑to‑end

Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience

Medical (choice of 3 plans), Dental, Vision, pre‑tax accounts, life insurance, disability insurance, 401(k) with match, and sick time if required by law.
