Last position:

Backend Software Developer (Java) at German Football Association (DFB) e. V.

  • Client: Prime Force Group GmbH

Technologies used: Java 25, Spring Boot 4, MapStruct, JSpecify, PostgreSQL, Redis, Liquibase, REST/OpenAPI, Apache Kafka, Apache Solr, OpenID Connect via IronGate/Keycloak, SAP Customer Data Cloud, JUnit, Testcontainers, Karate, Playwright, GitLab monorepo with CI/CD, Jenkins, JFrog Artifactory, FluxCD, Docker, Kubernetes on Azure, OpenTelemetry, arc42, Jira, Confluence

The Team Management Center is the new central platform of the DFB for planning, managing, and carrying out team activities for the national teams - from squad selection and training camps to communication with players, clubs, and legal guardians. The platform is designed for multi-tenancy for the DFB and regional associations; player, club, and master data are intentionally not copied, but connected at runtime via the DFBnet APIs.

I have been involved in the project continuously since the architecture and concept phase (Sprint 0) and work in a distributed Scrum team in two-week sprints. In addition to implementation, my focus is on architecture alignment, connecting the DFBnet interfaces, as well as code reviews and test automation as quality assurance in the team.

Focus areas:

  • Development and implementation of the multi-tenancy concept (tenant model for the DFB and regional associations), including data model, access layer, and Liquibase migrations.
  • Design of the person service and the search concept based on Apache Solr.
  • Integration of the DFBnet APIs (player, person, and club search, club data), including authentication and synchronous master data synchronization.
  • Hardening the integration through resilience patterns: separate read timeouts for each search path, correction of circuit breaker counting, limiting parallel requests, and a club cache to reduce load on the external system.
  • Development of self-service endpoints for players (own activities, activity details, games), including an access concept for participants, as well as person documents and file uploads.
  • Standardization of API design: OpenAPI annotations, nullability model via a custom ModelConverter, JSpecify migration of the DTOs, and documented API guidelines.
  • Build and maintenance of Karate-based API and integration tests, integration tests with Testcontainers, test guidelines, and bug triage from the integration and reference environments.
  • Code reviews via merge requests, architecture documentation according to arc42, and architecture decisions (ADRs) in Confluence.
  • Automated deployment to the integration and reference environments, analysis of login and OIDC issues in combination with IronGate.

Status: ongoing - as of 08/2026 in Sprint 17, around 940 person hours worked; testable delivery to the integration environment every two weeks.

About the technology

Enterprise Content and Digital Asset Platforms

Adobe Experience Manager unites content authoring, digital asset management, and digital enrollment across multi-brand setups. Built on Apache Sling, OSGi, and the Oak Java Content Repository, the platform lets global enterprises manage multilingual web presences, transactional forms, and rich media assets from a unified cockpit.

The Adobe Experience Cloud Ecosystem

Modern implementations integrate AEM Sites and AEM Assets with the broader Adobe marketing suite and cloud native tooling.

  • Cloud Manager and Adobe Experience Manager as a Cloud Service pipelines
  • Dispatcher caching architectures on Apache HTTP Web Server
  • Integrations with Adobe Target, Adobe Analytics, and Commerce
  • HTL templating and Core Components library customization
  • GraphQL APIs for hybrid and headless front-end delivery

Transitioning to Cloud Service Architectures

Many German manufacturing, automotive, and financial brands run on-premise installations formerly known as CQ5 or AEM 6.5. Moving to AEM as a Cloud Service requires refactoring legacy OSGi configurations, replacing deprecated replication agents, and containerizing Dispatcher setups. Independent specialists accelerate these transitions without disrupting live authoring workflows.

Headless Delivery and Front-End Integrations

Modern digital platforms rely on AEM content fragments delivered via GraphQL to Single Page Applications. Teams deploy Next.js, React, or Angular front ends backed by AEM asset workflows. Freelance professionals design structured content models and caching strategies that keep headless delivery fast while retaining in-context authoring.

When Organizations Hire External AEM Specialists

Complex release deadlines and major architectural milestones often exceed internal team bandwidth.

  • Upgrading from legacy AEM versions to Cloud Service
  • Building reusable Core Components for multisite rollouts
  • Optimizing Oak repository indexes and asset ingestion throughput
  • Establishing automated Cloud Manager quality gates and unit tests

Hallmarks of Strong Platform Professionals

Seasoned professionals combine deep knowledge of JCR indexing and Java OSGi service design with front-end tooling awareness. They understand strict caching tiers, write clean Dispatcher rewrite rules, and design scalable content fragment models. In Germany, they readily align with bilingual sprint setups, European data security guidelines, and hybrid enterprise delivery standards.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the questions that come up most around Adobe Experience Manager.

Adobe Experience Manager serves as an enterprise content management system and digital asset platform. It enables large organizations to orchestrate websites, dynamic digital assets, and customer forms across dozens of languages and regional domains simultaneously.

While headless CMS solutions focus purely on structured API delivery, AEM offers both full in-context WYSIWYG authoring and headless content delivery. Compared to platforms like Sitecore, it provides native integration with Adobe Analytics and Adobe Target, alongside enterprise digital asset governance.

A qualified AEM specialist brings solid Java engineering background, mastery of Apache Sling and OSGi frameworks, and deep knowledge of the HTL templating engine. They also possess working knowledge of front-end frameworks, Dispatcher configuration, and Adobe Cloud Manager CI/CD pipelines.

Legacy installations running AEM 6.5 rely on static server instances and manual maintenance packs. In contrast, the cloud-native edition runs continuous automated updates, auto-scales author and publish pods dynamically, and requires deployments to pass through Cloud Manager quality gates.

Because of deep integration with enterprise backends and complex architectural dependencies, Adobe Experience Manager projects rarely succeed with junior generalists. Engaging seasoned professionals with proven production delivery ensures correct repository design and avoids critical caching bottlenecks.

Yes, freelance specialists working with Adobe Experience Cloud integrate seamlessly via modern Git repositories, Cloud Manager, and virtual sprint ceremonies. Many enterprises in Germany prefer remote collaboration combined with occasional on-site workshops for discovery phases and go-live launches.

Look for a strong understanding of AEM core concepts such as custom Oak indexing, Sling Models, and Dispatcher filter rules. Strong professionals provide concrete examples of how they solved performance issues or migrated legacy CQ5 codebases to Cloud Service.

Dispatcher acts as the caching and security layer in front of the Adobe Experience Manager publish tier. Flawed caching rules overload publishing nodes and degrade page load performance, making specialized Dispatcher skills vital for any enterprise rollout.

The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used Adobe Experience Manager in their recent projects is 94 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 752 € based on an 8-hour working day.
