Founding by Mastercard and IBM, Trūata specializes in privacy‑enhancing technologies for privacy risk assessment, de‑identification, and true anonymization of data. In 2023, Mastercard acquired full ownership of Trūata, which continues to operate as an independent entity within the Mastercard Data and AI Strategy organization. Trūata is seeking a Senior Backend Software Engineer to join the growing engineering team in Dublin, Ireland. This key engineering role focuses on driving the development of innovative, privacy‑first data solutions that scale.
As a Senior Backend Software Engineer at Trūata, you will architect and build our cutting‑edge, GDPR‑compliant big data analytics platform, empowering enterprises to unlock actionable insights in real time. This role demands technical mastery in designing scalable microservices (Spring Boot, Java 17), handling complex data workflows (wrangling, anonymization, analytics), and deploying cloud‑native PaaS solutions that prioritize security and scalability. You’ll thrive in a fast‑paced, team‑first environment, collaborating closely with cross‑functional teams to translate challenging requirements into robust and scalable code.
Key Responsibilities

* Write maintainable code, prioritizing readability, testing, and CI/CD automation.
* Translate ambiguity into action by collaborating with product and data teams to clarify requirements and align priorities.
* Optimize code performance, design database storage models (SQL/NoSQL), streamline distributed workflows, and implement observability.
* Conduct code reviews, share knowledge via documentation, and empower engineers to grow into performant contributors.
* Contribute to strategic planning and help shape Trūata’s long‑term technology roadmap.
Technical Expertise
* 5+ years building enterprise‑grade backend systems (microservices, REST APIs, distributed data platforms).
* Strong knowledge of software engineering principles; University degree in Computer Science or equivalent (advanced degree preferred).
* Mastery of Spring Boot 3+, Java 17+, Git, and CI/CD pipelines (GitLab/Jenkins/GitHub).
* Proven experience designing fault‑tolerant systems, optimizing queries at scale, and containerizing apps (Docker/Kubernetes).
Soft Skills
* Excellent communicator, able to explain complex technical concepts to non‑technical stakeholders.
* Adaptable, thriving in ambiguity, and capable of shifting priorities without sacrificing quality.
* Mentorship mindset, passionate about teaching others and fostering inclusivity.
* Teamwork, valuing curiosity, transparency, and collaboration.
