Do you have any preferences for a new workplace — hardware, software, directions?

When choosing a new workplace for a senior Java developer, it is important to consider several aspects:

• Technical stack: preference for modern Java versions (e.g., Java 17+), use of popular frameworks (Spring Boot, Hibernate).
• Infrastructure: presence of CI/CD, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), cloud services.
• Team and processes: agile methodologies, code review, knowledge sharing culture.
• Directions: interest in microservices, distributed systems, high-load applications.

For example, one might wish to work in a team that actively uses modern DevOps practices and pays attention to code quality and automation.
