- Ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment and take full technical ownership.
- Key Skills: Java, Data Structures, Algorithms, Microservices, Java Collections, Generics, Spring Boot, System Architecture, Kafka, Kubernetes, Lambda.
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure).
