Skills to Be Successful in the Role:

  • Proficiency in Java and modern frameworks like Spring Boot (experience with Quarkus is a plus).
  • Experience building and operating cloud-hosted microservice architectures.
  • A solid understanding of event-driven architecture patterns and associated platforms (e.g., Kafka).
  • Familiarity with the concepts behind data technologies such as relational databases (e.g., SQL), NoSQL databases (e.g., DynamoDB), and in-memory caches (e.g., Redis).
  • Proven experience working in an Agile/Scrum development environment.
  • Demonstrated ability to provide technical leadership, mentor developers, and foster engineering best practices.
  • Excellent documentation skills, with the ability to create clear technical designs, flow diagrams, and sequence diagrams.Familiarity with front-end technologies like React or an interest in AI-assisted development tools is a plus.
