Java Backend Developer

You'll work on Clear's global e-invoicing platform —a suite of Java/Spring Boot services that generate, validate, route, and exchange tax-compliant invoices across multiple countries, including India, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Belgium, UAE, and the expanding EU/Peppol ecosystem.

The backend handles government-format mapping, network routing to tax-authority APIs, and Peppol four-corner document exchange. It is an event-driven, workflow-orchestrated platform built as Maven multi-module services.

This is an individual contributor role for an experienced backend engineer who can quickly understand an existing codebase and contribute independently. You'll own well-scoped features, resolve production issues, and deliver high-quality solutions while collaborating with senior engineers on larger technical initiatives.
