Junior Software Developer – Python, Java | Entry-Level, Remote-Friendly
Are you searching for a Junior Software Developer role in the United States where Python, Java, Git, and continuous learning collide? Join an agile engineering crew that ships production code, sweats code quality, and mentors rising talent every single sprint.
About the Team
An established, fast-growing tech organization empowers cross-functional squads that deliver SaaS, mobile, and data-driven solutions used by Fortune 500 enterprises and disruptive start-ups alike. You will collaborate with product managers, senior engineers, and QA analysts while enjoying a knowledge-sharing culture and optional remote setup across multiple time zones.
What You’ll Do
– Craft clean, efficient Python or Java code for microservices, APIs, and integrations.
– Write unit, integration, and smoke tests to safeguard new features.
– Track work with Git, pull requests, and peer reviews—no cowboy coding.
– Debug runtime issues, analyze logs, and propose durable fixes.
– Maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins) for seamless deployments.
– Document architecture decisions, endpoints, and troubleshooting steps.
– Pair with senior developers during planning and architecture sessions.
– Support weekly releases, feature toggles, and rollback strategies.
– Experiment with cloud offerings (AWS, GCP) and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
– Absorb new frameworks, libraries, and design patterns to stay ahead.
Must-Have Skills
– BS in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related US degree.
– Solid grasp of at least one language: Python 3.x or Java 17+.
– Knowledge of object-oriented and functional paradigms.
– Familiarity with Git workflows, branching strategies, and code reviews.
– Basic understanding of RESTful APIs, JSON, and HTTP status codes.
– Experience writing automated tests with pytest, JUnit, or similar.
– Problem-solving mindset with meticulous attention to edge cases.
– Clear verbal and written communication; you explain complex ideas plainly.
– Team spirit—comfortable asking for help and offering it.
– Legal authorization to work in the United States.
Nice-to-Have Extras
– Exposure to SQL or NoSQL databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB).
– Experience with containerization or serverless functions.
– Familiarity with agile boards (Jira, Trello) and sprint ceremonies.
– Contributions to open-source or personal GitHub portfolio.
– Interest in AI/ML toolchains, data pipelines, or DevOps practices.
Why This Role Stands Out
– Project diversity: finance algorithms today, healthcare analytics tomorrow.
– Senior mentorship: code reviews that teach, not just critique.
– Remote flexibility: work from home, a co-working space, or onsite—your choice.
– Learning culture: internal workshops, cloud credits, and certification vouchers.
– Visible impact: your commits reach production users within days, not months.
