Job Description

Working at Infobip means being part of something truly global. With 75+ offices across six continents, we’re not just building technology — we’re shaping how more than 80% of the world connects and communicates.

As employees, we take pride in contributing to the world’s largest and only full-stack cloud communication platform. But it’s not just what we do, it’s how we do it: with curiosity, passion, and a whole lot of collaboration.

We operate with an AI-first mindset, embedding intelligent tools into our daily workflows to work smarter and more efficiently. Every role here benefits from and contributes to this approach.

If you're looking for meaningful work and challenges that grow you in a culture where people show up with purpose, this is your opportunity.

Let’s build what’s next, together.

What this role is all about
As a Junior Software Engineer, you join an engineering organization that develops its products in-house and operates large-scale, distributed systems used by clients worldwide. Java is our primary language, and the Spring Framework is the backbone of the services we build. You'll work with relational databases, cloud storage services, and CDNs, and you'll occasionally reach for Golang or Bash when the job calls for it. You will grow your engineering skills in a highly collaborative environment, learning directly from experienced engineers while contributing to services that are reliable, scalable, and impactful. We work with an AI-first mindset, using intelligent tools to improve how we build, learn, and deliver software every day.


What you’ll do

  • Write well-designed, testable, and maintainable code for high-throughput, reliable platform services.

  • Own parts of the codebase and contribute meaningfully to your team’s services within a large-scale distributed architecture.

  • Pair program and mob program with senior engineers, learning how experienced developers think, debug, and design solutions.

  • Use modern coding agents and large language models as part of your everyday engineering toolkit.

  • Practice test-driven development by writing tests first, iterating confidently, and refactoring safely.

  • Build a deep understanding of the systems you work on, including performance constraints, failure modes, and integrations.

  • Actively participate in technical discussions by asking questions, sharing ideas, and developing well-founded engineering opinions.

What makes you a strong fit

  • A Master’s degree in Computer Science or a related field

  • Strong fundamentals in Java, with motivation to continuously improve and deepen your knowledge.

  • Understanding of core software engineering concepts such as clean code, testing, version control, and basic system design.

  • Curiosity about distributed systems and a desire to understand the reasoning behind complex technical problems.

  • Comfort working with ambiguity and the ability to make progress without having every detail predefined.

  • A collaborative mindset, you enjoy learning with others, asking questions, and contributing as part of a team.

Nice-to-have qualifications

  • 1-2 years of industry experience working in software engineering

  • Part-time work experience or personal, academic, or open-source projects completed during your studies, demonstrating initiative and curiosity beyond the curriculum are a plus

Why you'll love it here • Financial rewards & recognition - A fair compensation aligned with your experience, industry, and market standards, performance-driven bonuses, regular reviews to support your growth and recognize your contributions, and a culture that values your impact. • Flexible work arrangements - We combine in-person collaboration with remote work and flexible working hours, because great ideas happen everywhere - and not always between 9 and 5. • ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) - As an Infobip employee, you’ll have the opportunity to share in our company’s success through stock options. • Work-life balance and Well-being  - We offer time off when you need it, special leave days for life’s big moments, and a flexible hybrid work model tailored to local regulations. • Career mobility - Your career is a journey.
