It’s a big ask, but it’s one that we have the power to deliver when we work together. We collaborate and innovate – pushing one another to transform not just Pacific Life, but the entire industry for the better. Why? Because it’s the right thing to do. Pacific Life is more than a job, it’s a career with purpose. It’s a career where you have the support, balance, and resources to make a positive impact on the future – including your own.

As a Senior Java Backend Developer at Pacific Life, you will assist in the development of backend services, APIs, and microservices essential to our Workforce Benefits Division’s digital infrastructure. This role requires a deep understanding of Java, a strong knowledge of the insurance domain, and proficiency in tools such as Kraken, OpenL, and Flowable. You’ll be responsible for designing robust backend solutions, optimizing processes, and supporting a configuration-driven environment to enhance our administration system’s functionality, performance, and scalability. A strong foundation in microservices and API development will empower you to build reliable, secure integrations and support system interoperability across multiple platforms.

We are actively seeking a skilled Senior Java Backend Developer to join our Workforce Benefits Division team in Newport Beach, CA.

How you’ll help move us forward :

  • Backend Development : Aid in the design, development, and optimization of Java-based backend services within the insurance platform, supporting our configuration-focused environment.
  • System Integration : Collaborate with frontend developers, UX / UI designers, and business stakeholders to ensure seamless integration across all systems.
  • Technical Leadership : Provide mentorship to junior developers, instilling best practices for secure, scalable applications.

  • Performance Optimization : Monitor and address performance bottlenecks, ensuring optimal system response times and scalability.
  • Problem Solving : Lead troubleshooting efforts and drive continuous improvements in backend development processes.

  • Member, Policy, and Product Domain Logic : Build and enhance services related to member enrollment, policy administration, plan configuration, and product rules within a group benefits context.
  • Policy Lifecycle Support : Implement functionality supporting policy issuance, endorsements, renewals, terminations, and reinstatements.
  • Configuration-Driven Logic : Work with configurable platforms to interpret and apply benefit rules, premium calculations, and eligibility validations.
  • Billing and Claims Readiness : Contribute to backend readiness for billing schedules, invoice generation, and downstream claim enablement based on policy and product configuration.
  • Group Insurance Alignment : Align development with the unique requirements of group insurance products, including multi-coverage, multi-tier, and employer-level constructs.
  • The experience you bring :

  • Education : Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience : 6+ years in Java-focused backend development, with strong knowledge of API and RESTful services.
  • Version Control : Proficient in Git for version control.
