Access is seeking exceptional backend software engineers with a strong passion for building high-quality software on the JVM. While our primary stack centers on the Java/Spring ecosystem, we also support applications built with Scala and Akka Streams.
As a Senior Software Engineer, you will play a critical role in designing, architecting, and developing REST API microservices, web applications, and software solutions that serve millions of users. Our infrastructure is fully hosted in AWS, using GitHub Actions for CI, and CodePipeline/CodeDeploy for continuous delivery. We collaborate through Slack and manage work using JIRA.
Access Development is one of the Wasatch Front’s best-kept software secrets. We follow the OKR methodology, and every project starts with an idea that can come from anyone on the team. Our Product team validates ideas through user testing, customer interviews, and risk analysis—ensuring products are well-defined before development begins.
