This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for an Entry-Level Java Software Developer based in the United States.

We are looking for a motivated aspiring software developer ready to launch a career in software engineering through structured technical training and practical project experience. In this remote contract role, you will strengthen your programming fundamentals while learning to build applications using Java and essential web technologies. The opportunity combines immersive learning with hands-on development work, allowing you to apply new skills in real-world project environments. You will gain exposure to backend development, databases, APIs, and frontend technologies while collaborating with experienced professionals. Through guided training and continued project involvement, you will develop the technical confidence needed to contribute to software delivery teams. This role is ideal for an early-career candidate eager to learn, solve problems, and build a strong foundation for long-term growth in technology.

Accountabilities

• Technical Training and Development: Participate in structured, immersive training focused on Java programming, software development fundamentals, and essential web technologies.

• Java Application Development: Apply Java programming skills to develop, enhance, test, and maintain software applications in accordance with project requirements.

• Backend Development: Learn and contribute to backend development using Java frameworks, including Spring, to build reliable and maintainable application components.

• Database Management: Work with MySQL and other relevant database technologies to retrieve, organize, and manage application data using appropriate queries and practices.

• API Development and Integration: Support the development, testing, and integration of REST APIs to enable communication between software applications and services.

• Frontend Development: Use HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React, as required by project assignments, to contribute to responsive and interactive web applications.

• Software Testing and Debugging: Identify and resolve basic software defects, test application functionality, and follow development best practices to maintain code quality.

• Development Tools and Practices: Use tools such as IntelliJ IDEA to write, organize, debug, and maintain code while following established development workflows.

• Team Collaboration: Work alongside developers and other project team members to understand requirements, share progress, resolve technical challenges, and deliver assigned tasks.

• Continuous Learning: Build technical knowledge through feedback, practical assignments, collaboration, and ongoing exposure to software development methodologies and technologies.

Requirements:

• Educational Background: A bachelor's degree is required.

• Foundational Programming Experience: At least 6 months of programming experience, gained through employment, academic projects, personal projects, or other relevant practical experience.

• Java Fundamentals: Basic knowledge of Java programming, including core concepts such as variables, data types, control structures, methods, and object-oriented programming.

• Willingness to Learn: Commitment to completing immersive technical training and developing the skills needed to contribute effectively to software development projects.

• Web Development Knowledge: Familiarity with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript is beneficial, with an interest in expanding knowledge of frontend development tools such as React.

• Backend and Database Fundamentals: Basic understanding of backend development, REST APIs, relational databases, and SQL is an advantage.

• Development Tools: Familiarity with IntelliJ IDEA or comparable integrated development environments is helpful.

• Problem-Solving Skills: Ability to approach technical challenges logically, troubleshoot issues, and apply feedback to improve solutions.

• Communication and Collaboration: Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to work constructively with teammates in a collaborative software development environment.

• Adaptability and Initiative: A proactive attitude, attention to detail, and willingness to learn new technologies, follow technical guidance, and take responsibility for assigned tasks.

• Work Authorization: Must meet the applicable work authorization requirements for the United States and the specific contract assignment.

Benefits:

• Competitive Entry-Level Contract Rate: Indicative compensation of $20–$30 per hour, depending on the assignment and agreed contract terms.

• Remote Work Opportunity: Work remotely from the United States, subject to project requirements.

• Structured Technical Training: Build foundational programming skills through immersive training in Java and essential web technologies.

• Hands-On Project Experience: Apply newly acquired knowledge to practical software development assignments and gain exposure to real-world project workflows.

• Broad Technology Exposure: Develop familiarity with Java, Spring, MySQL, REST APIs, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, and development tools.

• Early-Career Development: Strengthen technical problem-solving, coding, debugging, and collaboration skills to support future career opportunities in software engineering.

• Collaborative Learning Environment: Work with project teams, receive feedback, and continue developing your capabilities through practical experience.

We use an AI-powered matching process to ensure your application is reviewed quickly, objectively, and fairly against the role's core requirements. Our system identifies the top-fitting candidates, and this shortlist is then shared directly with the hiring company. The final decision and next steps (interviews, assessments) are managed by their internal team.

We appreciate your interest and wish you the best!
