Proficiency in at least two of the following languages: Java, C#/.NET, Python, and hands‑on experience with Angular or React for front‑end development. Deep understanding of microservices architecture, REST API design, and experience with relational (SQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB/DynamoDB) data stores. Extensive experience deploying and managing applications on Azure or AWS, including containerization with Docker and orchestration with Kubernetes. Solid expertise in version control (Git) and CI/CD tooling such as Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or GitHub Actions, coupled with a strong emphasis on automated testing.
