    • Microservices architecture

  • Solid understanding of data modeling, SQL, relational DBs, and query optimization.

  • Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.

  • Strong ownership mindset, problem-solving skills, and end-to-end delivery capability.

  • Understanding of distributed systems, messaging patterns, and cloud-native principles.


Nice to Have

  • Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, DevOps, and automation.

  • Exposure to NoSQL, caching systems (Redis/Memcached), or event processing frameworks.
