Senior Software Developer - KLPTK

About this role

Aspire Software is looking for a Senior Software Developer to join our team in Lebanon.
Here is a little window into our company: Aspire Software operates and manages wholly owned software companies, providing mission-critical solutions across multiple verticals. By implementing industry best practices, Aspire delivers a time sensitive integration process, and the operation of a decentralized model has allowed it to become a hub for creating rapid growth by reinvesting in its portfolio.

About the Job:
This is not a role that rewards knowing the right buzzwords. It is a role for someone who is selfdriven, technically grounded, and genuinely excited about learning – including how to work alongside AI tools as a first-class part of the engineering craft. We want someone who challenges ideas, proposes better approaches, and takes ownership from concept through to production.

What You’ll Do
Design, develop, and maintain APIs and web applications across the full stack
Translate requirements and use cases into clean, maintainable, and well-tested code
Integrate data storage solutions including Oracle databases, Redis, and Solr
Identify bottlenecks, debug issues, and drive continuous performance improvements
Participate in code reviews – give and receive honest, constructive feedback
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define and deliver new features
Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior developers
Write and maintain technical documentation that the next person can actually use
Use AI tools actively and critically – to accelerate development, improve test coverage, and explore solutions – while taking full ownership of what ships

How You Work
We’re hiring for mindset as much as skills. The right person for this role:
Is genuinely curious and self-driven – you learn because you want to, not because you have to
Solves problems even when the path isn’t obvious – you investigate, experiment, and iterate
Thinks in systems and trade-offs, not just in lines of code
Embraces AI as a force multiplier – you’ve built real habits around AI-assisted development and you understand both its power and its limits
Challenges ideas constructively and is comfortable being challenged in return
Takes ownership of features end-to-end, not just your assigned ticket
Is comfortable with ambiguity and evolving requirements
Requirements

Backend: Java (8+), JPA, JAX-RS, Hibernate, Spring
Database: PL/SQL, Oracle
Frontend: TypeScript, Angular 2+, HTML5, CSS/Sass
Proven, hands-on experience with AI tools as a core part of your development workflow – not just experimentation
Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently and collaboratively
Experience with Agile methodologies and fast-paced delivery cycles
Professional-level English, written and verbal

Nice to Have
Experience with microservices architecture and containerisation (Docker, Kubernetes)
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices
Experience with cloud-based services (Azure, AWS)
Familiarity with JBoss WildFly, Keycloak, OpenID Connect, OAuth 2, or JWT
Familiarity with ActiveMQ/AMQ or Solr/Elasticsearch
Experience with AngularJS (legacy migration context)
