Kotlin Developer for the Budgeting Tools Team

Kotlin Developer for the Budgeting Tools Team

We are developing an internal platform that manages changes in Yandex's organizational structure. This distributed product facilitates company transformations, maintains data consistency, and integrates with dozens of internal services.

If you are interested in building systems that the entire company's efficiency depends on, if you love clean code, tests, and thoughtful architecture — we will be happy to have you on the team.

What tasks await you

Design and Development You will clarify requirements with analysts, product managers, and related teams, proposing optimal technical solutions. Develop and maintain services for managing changes in organizational structure and related processes. Design and implement reliable APIs for integration with other Yandex products. Work with long-lived asynchronous business processes: model states, ensure idempotency and fault tolerance.

Quality, Infrastructure, and Code Development You will write automated tests (unit, integration, contract) and improve the team's testing strategy. Participate in code review: give and receive feedback, explain technical decisions. Perform refactoring and improve component maintainability.

Operations and Observability You will need to implement business metrics: add events/metrics to code, build dashboards. Develop CI/CD pipelines and improve the service deployment process.

We expect you to

• Have commercial development experience with Java and confidently know Spring Framework
• Understand testing principles (testable code, differences between mock, stub and spy, adequate coverage)
• Articulate thoughts clearly — in code, discussions, and correspondence
• Take a responsible approach to quality: "works on my machine" is not a criterion for readiness
• Have a basic understanding of microservice architecture, REST/gRPC, CI/CD principles
• Are ready to immerse yourself in the subject domain and work with Kotlin (experience is a plus, but not required: we will help you learn)
