- Solid understanding of API design principles (REST, GraphQL) and experience working with various data formats (JSON, XML).
- Experience with relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL) and ORMs.
- Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Strong problem-solving skills, with the ability to analyze complex technical challenges and propose effective solutions.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with a proven ability to work effectively in a cross-functional team environment.
