// capabilities

What our Spring Boot engineers own.

Spring Boot microservices

Well-structured services with clear bounded contexts and independent deployability.

Spring Security

OAuth2, JWT, SAML, and method-level authorization. Enterprise-grade identity.

JPA / Hibernate

High-performance data access layers tuned for production loads — no N+1 disasters.

Spring Batch

Large-scale batch processing for ETL, settlement, reporting, and regulatory workflows.

Spring Actuator

Health checks, metrics, and observability built in from day one.

Event-driven systems

Kafka, RabbitMQ, and Spring Cloud Stream for decoupled, scalable architectures.

Performance tuning

JVM tuning, GC configuration, and connection pool optimisation — measured.

Multi-module projects

Clean Maven/Gradle structures for codebases multiple teams work on safely.

// deep-verticals

Six verticals we know cold.

99.99%

Banking & Financial Services

Core banking, payments, trading, and settlement systems that cannot go down.

20+ yrs

Insurance

Policy administration, claims, underwriting, and actuarial systems.

Audit-ready

Government & Public Sector

National registries, tax systems, and citizen-facing platforms.

Millions of records

Telecommunications

Billing, provisioning, OSS/BSS, and network management systems.

Real-time sync

Manufacturing & Logistics

MES, WMS, ERP integrations, and supply-chain orchestration.

HIPAA-ready

Healthcare

Patient records, clinical systems, and HIPAA-aligned platforms.

// why-spring

Why enterprises choose Spring Boot.

01

Two decades of stability

Spring has been the enterprise Java standard since 2003. Your investment is protected for 20+ years, not 3.

02

Enterprise hiring pool

Java developers are the largest professional developer community in the world. Growth is easy.

03

Production at every scale

From regional banks to global payment networks — Spring runs the systems that can't fail.

04

Compliance by default

Audit logging, transaction management, and RBAC are built into the framework.

05

Predictable performance

The JVM's mature tooling means performance is measurable and tunable, not guesswork.

06

Cloud-native ready

Spring Cloud, Native images, and Kubernetes integration — modern without being trendy.

// spring-ecosystem

Six projects in the Spring family.

Spring Boot is the entry point. These are the projects every senior engineer on our bench knows.

spring.io

Spring Boot

Application framework. Auto-configuration, embedded servers, production-ready defaults.

spring.io

Spring Cloud

Service discovery, config server, circuit breakers, and gateway for distributed systems.

spring.io

Spring Security

Authentication, authorization, OAuth2, JWT, SAML. Enterprise identity done right.

spring.io

Spring Data

Repository abstractions for JPA, MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch, and more.

spring.io

Spring Batch

Batch processing for settlement, ETL, and regulatory reporting at scale.

spring.io

Spring Actuator

Production endpoints for health, metrics, env, and thread dumps.

// jvm-tuning

Six flags every senior engineer defends.

Not cargo-culted from a blog post. Each of these is a decision — with a specific reason and a specific tradeoff.

jvm flags we defend

6 flags

-XX:+UseG1GC

Default for most services. Predictable pause times at heap sizes up to ~16 GB.

-XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200

Soft target for pause time. Tune for latency-sensitive endpoints.

-XX:+UseZGC

Sub-millisecond pauses. Use for heaps over 32 GB or strict latency SLAs.

-Xms2g -Xmx2g

Same min and max heap. Prevents resize-induced pauses during ramp-up.

-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError

Always on. Post-mortem debugging saves hours.

-XX:MaxRAMPercentage=75

Container-aware heap sizing. Respects the container limit, not the host.

// migration-playbook

Spring Boot 2 → 3. The Jakarta migration.

Five phases. Every service migrated independently, tested against parallel runs, rolled back without drama.

01

Inventory

Audit dependencies. Flag javax.* imports, deprecated APIs, and libraries with no Jakarta-ready release.

02

Jakarta namespace

Mechanical javax.* → jakarta.* rename via OpenRewrite. Version bumps per module.

03

Security config

Spring Security 5 → 6 rewrite. Lambda DSL, deprecated APIs removed, method security reviewed.

04

Parallel test

Run the test suite against Boot 3. Fix regressions per module. Snapshot JVM metrics before/after.

05

Cutover

Roll out service by service. Rollback plan per service. Monitor JVM, GC, and error rates for 72 hours.

// guarantees

Six things, in writing. No exceptions.

2-week paid trial

Work with your engineer for two weeks. If it's not right, no obligation.

Free replacement

Within 30 days if the fit isn't right. Same vetting bar, same standard.

NDA before specifics

Signed before any project details change hands.

Full IP assignment

You own every line we write. No licensing, no reuse clauses.

30-day cancel

No termination fees, no lock-in. Stop the engagement whenever you need to.

Vetted bench

Technical, code, communication, and reference checks before you see a candidate.

// rates

Three levels. GHS and USD.

Enterprise Java commands a premium. These are honest rates — not inflated, not discounted.

// deployment-pipeline

From request to engineer in four stages.

stage 01

Tell us the role

Share your stack, seniority, and start date. We confirm we can fill it.

stage 02

We send candidates

Within 5–10 business days, 2–3 pre-vetted Spring Boot engineers.

stage 03

You interview

You run your own interviews. We don't push candidates you don't love.

stage 04

Trial or hire

2-week paid trial. Convert to full engagement if it works.

// why-us

Skip the CV pile.
Get real engineers.

Anyone can post a job ad. We do the vetting, reference checks, and technical screening — so you only see candidates worth interviewing.

Vetted, not listed

Every engineer passes all four filters before you see them.

Available in days

Most roles placed within 5–10 business days.

Long-term placements

We optimise for retention — not just one placement.

Global-ready

Overlap with African, European, and NA time zones.

Client feedback

What our clients
actually say.

The move to SikaNet CBS was a bigger shift than I expected — but the right one. Before, our Susu collectors were on paper and every BOG report took us days to assemble. Now collections appear in the office before a collector even finishes their route, and the reports are just there. The team understood our business from day one.

DA

David Awuni

Founder, Adwumapa Microfinance

We were cautious about moving patient records online. The on-prem approach changed that — everything stays inside the health center, nothing goes to a foreign cloud. Our clinicians now retrieve a file in seconds instead of ten minutes, and every entry has an audit trail behind it.

MD

Medical Director

Sekyedumase Health Center

The patient management system they developed has streamlined our ophthalmology department. Appointment scheduling, patient records, and referral tracking are now seamless — saving us hours of administrative work every day.
