Capstone IT is partnering with our client, a leader in the insurance and financial services industry, to hire a Full Stack Software Engineer to support a large-scale digital modernization initiative within their Group Insurance division.

You’ll contribute to a suite of mission-critical applications using React (JavaScript/TypeScript) for front-end development, Java and Spring Boot for backend microservices, and Apache Kafka for event-driven architecture. Applications are deployed to AWS, leveraging services such as Fargate, MSK, and Lambda. You’ll also operate within a DevOps environment that includes Docker, Kubernetes, Git, and CI/CD pipelines, with exposure to MuleSoft and MongoDB as part of the broader integration ecosystem.
