The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Anthem is hiring a Java Developer in Wilmington, DE.

• Role description

  Engineers who can explain RabbitMQ to a skeptic and still ship by Friday tend to thrive in our Java Developer role in Wilmington. At Anthem, $107,000 - $160,000 buys a senior seat, but 7 years of Continuous Learning buys you the ownership that comes with it.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Document technical decisions, architecture, and APIs for the broader org
  • Document the Tailwind CSS system so the next senior engineer onboards in days, not weeks
  • Refine and maintain microservices that support Anthem customers in Wilmington, DE
  • Break large technology initiatives into Continuous Learning increments Wilmington can actually deliver
  • Untangle the RabbitMQ dependency knots that have slowed Wilmington releases for months
  • Evaluate and recommend new tools, frameworks, and PostgreSQL libraries
  • Apply Terraform and Ansible to solve empowering engineering challenges

  What You'll Bring

  • Demonstrated knack for making the community-minded feel manageable
  • Proven Terraform judgment when the textbook answer doesn't fit
  • A keen eye for quality and consistency in your output
  • Real Express.js chops, plus the Tailwind CSS curiosity to keep growing
  • Demonstrated comfort presenting to senior leadership
  • A deeply-curious attitude and eagerness to learn new skills
  • The integrity to flag your own mistakes first

  A generously-mentoring Wilmington, DE company through, Anthem measures success by how invisible its technology systems become. At Anthem feedback has a short half-life, delivered close to the moment it can still help.

  Step in at $107,000 - $160,000, climb with structured growth, lean on a mentor, and take the flexibility Anthem is genuinely proud of.

  We are meeting Java Developer candidates now and moving qualified ones forward fast.
