DomoSafety helps the elderly to stay secure and independent at home. We use internet-of-things sensor data from the customers' homes and analyse it using machine learning methods to detect emergency situations and inform the caregivers, family and doctors. DomoSafety’s software team builds the server-based core applications which detect these emergency situations and act upon them.
We are looking for an experienced Java engineer to augment our software development team. For this position, you must bring a solid experience in PaaS and clustering in the Java/JEE world. You will leverage the possibilities of JBoss and PostgreSQL to improve scalability and availability of the service, spreading the load accross several nodes. With increasing number of customers, the application needs to support more page views, but also more machine-to-machine communication from devices in the field. Tackling the challenge of handling this load will be a key goal of your job.
As part of your work, you will also implement solutions to allow update deployments without service interruption and ways to improve our SLA. When the application runs in a private cloud at an institution's sites, it has to adapt to the existing infrastructure (server setups, VMs etc). This will require you to keep its flexibility and adaptability in mind while designing.
Our service is used by caregivers (nurses, family members) to support the elderly. Understanding their requirements to build the best tool possible is key. You will work closely with the business to understand upcoming needs and propose technical solutions. You will also need to understand and communicate the trade-offs they imply. We expect you to be eager to share your knowledge with the team so that every member benefits, but also a keen learner, ready to acquire necessary knowledge by yourself.
We provide an agile and innovative work environment in a small international team, where collaboration is key. We value individual initiatives and people ready to take ownership of aspects of the product.
With us, you are part of the solution, to the global challenge of the aging population.
