What they do

Spring Boot at enterprise scale — the JVM work that carries real load.

01

Spring Boot services

Well-bounded microservices and modular monoliths with Spring Boot 3, observability and sane service contracts.

02

High-load engineering

Concurrency, caching and JVM tuning for systems where throughput is a requirement, not a nice-to-have.

03

Enterprise integration

Kafka, message brokers, SSO and the integration patterns Dutch enterprise estates run on.

04

Modernization

Java 8-era estates brought to current LTS versions and containerized without stopping the release train.

Use cases

What teams hire Java developers for.

Java remains the enterprise workhorse for load-bearing systems. For lighter services around a Java core, teams often add Node.js or Python at the edges.

01

Core banking & payments

The JVM systems where throughput and correctness are non-negotiable.

02

Event-driven estates

Kafka-based integration landscapes across enterprise domains.

03

Java 8 → 21 modernization

LTS upgrades and containerization without stopping the release train.

Stack & seniority

What's on the bench.

Senior-heavy — our Java bench skews to engineers with banking, telecom and logistics backgrounds, matching the enterprises we've served for years.

Rates & engagement

Three ways to engage Java developers.

FT

Dedicated full-time

One specialist, embedded in your team, your standups and your tools — the classic direct model. Most placements run this way for a year or longer.

PT

Part-time fraction

Two or three days a week for maintenance-grade or advisory work — you keep senior capability without paying for idle hours.

POD

Inside a pod

For outcome-scoped delivery, the specialist joins one of our implementation pods — priced on the result, not the hours.

What moves the rate: seniority, ecosystem scarcity (an architect-level profile prices differently than a generalist), and how long the engagement runs. For context, Dutch IT detachering averages about €65–150 per hour (ITRC, 2026); the direct nearshore model usually undercuts comparable local seniority meaningfully, since no layered agencies take margin. Exact all-in rates come with your shortlist in the intro call.

Ofte stillede spørgsmål

Hiring Java developers, answered.

Where they sit

Your Java developers work from our network across the Netherlands, Ukraine, Hungary, Romania, Poland and Bulgaria — all CET ±1, all fluent English (C1), all contracted and payrolled by Probegin so compliance stays our problem, not yours.

Netherlands · HQUkraineHungaryRomaniaPolandBulgaria
Do your Java developers have enterprise experience?

Yes — the bench skews to engineers who've worked in banking, telecom and logistics environments, the same profile our Dutch enterprise clients have drawn on for years.

Can they modernize our Java 8 estate?

Stepwise LTS upgrades, containerization and Spring Boot migrations are standard engagements — executed without freezing your roadmap.

Do they work with Kafka and event-driven architectures?

Extensively; Kafka-based integration is one of the most common requirements in our Java placements.

How fast can a Java developer start?

Profiles within days, start within two weeks, 60-day trial as standard.

Spring Boot only, or also Quarkus/Micronaut?

Spring Boot 3 is the bench default; Quarkus experience exists for teams chasing startup time and memory footprint in Kubernetes-dense estates.

How does the 60-day trial period work?

The first 60 days are the proof: if the match isn't right, you say so and the placement ends without long-term obligation — or we replace the profile from the network. Most trials convert; the ones that don't cost you a conversation, not a contract.

Can we scale from one developer to a team?

Yes — that's the normal growth path. Many clients start with a single specialist and expand to two or five as the roadmap demands, keeping one contract and one point of contact at Probegin. Scaling down is equally simple, with reasonable notice instead of penalty clauses.

Who handles contracts, payroll and compliance?

Probegin does. You get one Dutch counterparty and one invoice; employment, payroll and cross-border compliance for the specialist are our responsibility. That structure also keeps you clear of freelance-classification risk under Dutch rules.
