📣 About the role 

We are on a mission to revolutionize the 2T$ hospitality industry and to become a new vertical SaaS giant.

As a rapidly growing SaaS company, with high-performance teams and a collaborative culture, where employee innovation and ideas are encouraged, this position is vital to Thynk’s success.

As Thynk continues to scale globally, integrations are a critical pillar of our platform. Our customers rely on seamless, reliable connections between Thynk and a growing ecosystem of hospitality systems. To support this growth, we are strengthening our middleware team and investing in a robust, scalable integration layer.

This role is key to ensuring our platform remains highly performant, secure, and easy to integrate as we onboard more customers and partners worldwide.

It will be your mission to design, build, and evolve high-quality integrations and middleware services that power Thynk’s ecosystem. You will play a central role in shaping our integration architecture, improving reliability and scalability, and setting engineering standards within the team.

You’ll work closely with product, platform, and customer-facing teams to translate real business needs into resilient technical solutions.

You will join the middleware team, a growing group of experienced engineers focused on making Thynk the best-integrated system in the hospitality industry. The team works closely with product, leadership, and the wider engineering organization, with a strong sense of ownership and impact.

You will report to an experienced engineering manager and collaborate daily with senior engineers who care deeply about code quality, maintainability, and pragmatic problem-solving.

On the technical side, the role is centered around Java and Spring Boot, building and operating middleware services on AWS, with AWS Lambda as a core component of our integration platform. We use Lambda, SQS, and API Gateway to build scalable and reliable integrations, complemented by services running on ECS Fargate for longer-running or more complex workloads. You will contribute to architectural decisions, improve reliability and performance, and help define best practices for building and operating integrations at scale. We deploy weekly, work with a strong DevOps mindset, and value engineers who take ownership from design to production.

We actively use AI-assisted development tools, and are standardizing on JetBrains Junie to support code quality, productivity, and day-to-day development workflows.

🧑‍💻 As our "Job title" at Thynk, you will: 

Contribute as an individual contributor in a strong, fully remote team and be a team player in a highly collaborative environment. You will help build and operate the services that power our integrations and platform.

You will be responsible for:

• Designing, building, and maintaining middleware and integration services that connect Thynk with external hospitality systems.

• Developing high-quality Java / Spring Boot services running on AWS, with AWS Lambda as a core execution environment.

• Owning integrations end-to-end, from technical design and implementation to deployment and production support.

• Collaborating closely with product, platform, and customer-facing teams to translate business requirements into reliable technical solutions.

• Contributing to architecture and technical decision-making within the middleware domain, with a focus on scalability, security, and maintainability.

• Writing clean, well-tested, and observable code, and continuously improving existing services and integrations.

• Participating actively in code reviews, sharing knowledge, and helping raise the overall engineering bar.

• Troubleshooting and resolving complex production issues, with a strong sense of ownership and accountability.

• Using AI-assisted development tools as part of your daily workflow, while applying strong engineering judgment and ownership over the final output.
