This role is designed for a heavyweight Java architect with over 12 years of experience who still enjoys daily coding.

Because this is a Public Benefit Corporation, they are looking for a high-integrity leader who values "doing the right thing" as much as they value technical excellence.

You’ll be joining a stable, profitable organization that has maintained a fast-paced, startup-like culture despite its $2B+ revenue. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have 12+ years of experience and are an expert in the modern Java/Spring ecosystem. * Prefer a "Player-Coach" role where you mentor others but still own features from design to deployment. * Thrive in high-intensity, "hard-working" environments where you have full ownership of your output. * Have a background in life sciences or complex enterprise cloud applications.
