I'm Ian Anderson, Engineering Manager for the Compliance, Recruiting, and Camps team at Teamworks. Our products power some of the most complex and compliance-sensitive workflows in collegiate athletics, and right now we're at a pivotal moment. We're moving from a monolithic, reactive codebase toward a stable, service-oriented architecture with a data layer that the entire Teamworks platform, including Ask Teamworks, can rely on.

To get there, I need someone who's genuinely energized by hard technical problems and brings the patience and rigor to solve them the right way.

The Role

• Own feature delivery across Compliance, Recruiting, and Camps, breaking complex work into small, shippable increments and seeing them through from design to production

• Design and build internal APIs and data access layers for performant, reliable cross-product data consumption, including the API versioning and service layer work needed to decompose the monolith into a Citadel-style architecture

• Diagnose and resolve critical performance issues in the data import pipeline through measurement, testing, and targeted fixes

• Provide mentorship and technical direction to junior engineers as a natural part of how you work, not as a side responsibility

• Drive code quality through MR reviews, testing practices, and AI-assisted development methods

• Participate in on-call rotation and incident response

What I'm Looking For

What You Must Bring

• 6+ years of senior-level Java and Spring/Spring Boot experience

• Proven experience building internal APIs on top of relational databases, with strong query optimization and schema design skills

• Experience working across monolithic and service-oriented architectures, with a track record of decomposing monolithic applications into a service-oriented structure

• Experience building or evolving a data access layer that serves multiple internal consumers across a platform

• Proficiency with agentic coding tools and AI-assisted development

• Experience mentoring junior engineers and developing their problem-solving instincts

Even Better If

• Background in a high-compliance or regulated industry such as financial services or healthcare

• Experience with a modern JavaScript front-end framework

Why This Role

The C&R and Camps codebase is complex, the problems are real, and the work has direct impact on thousands of athletic programs that depend on Teamworks to stay compliant. You'll walk in on day one with meaningful ownership and a clear set of problems to solve, from import pipeline performance to long-term service architecture. The data layer work you do here also has reach across the broader Teamworks platform, including products like Ask Teamworks that rely on clean, performant data from every system. If you want to own something that matters and leave it better than you found it, this is that role.

The team operates on a few principles that I take seriously: ship incrementally, learn from incidents without finger-pointing, and ask for help before problems get big. I manage with the same philosophy: clear ownership, real autonomy, and a genuine investment in your growth. If that sounds like the environment you've been looking for, I'd like to talk.
