Scala Developer

Position: Scala Developer with Kafka
Location: NYC, NY ( 3 days onsite and first round with client will be in person)
Duration: 12 months
 Our client need is a Scala developer who has Kakfa background as well as the knowledge of containerizing code and perform end point deployments. They should have developed or refactored Scala applications.
Scala Developer specs:
- Build REST/gRPC APIs, microservices, and distributed systems using Scala’s functional and object‑oriented features, with Akka, Play, or ZIO for concurrency and async processing
- Type‑safe, immutable data structures: Use Scala’s strong static typing to design robust, maintainable codebases, reducing runtime errors and improving testability
- Optimizing JVM/Scala performance: Tune memory usage, concurrency, and multi‑threading for high‑load systems; integrate with databases (SQL/NoSQL), message brokers, and cloud platforms
- CI/CD and DevOps integration: Implement automated builds, containerized deployments (Docker/Kubernetes), and monitoring pipelines
- Legacy system refactoring: Modernize Java‑based systems by integrating Scala modules without full rewrites, leveraging JVM interoperability
