• Strong experience designing backend APIs and crafting efficient database schemas.
• Ability to independently manage project scopes, set realistic timelines, and resolve issues autonomously.
• Effective written and verbal communication skills to facilitate collaboration in a distributed team.

Nice to Have

• Experience with strongly typed programming languages; Java is preferred.
• Experience with frontend testing frameworks or other tools to maintain code quality.
• Familiarity with cloud-based infrastructure and tools for monitoring and optimizing distributed systems.
• Experience with containerization and orchestration tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).
