• Strong understanding of CI/CD best practices, with proven experience in deployment automation.
• Solid experience in building and consuming RESTful APIs, ensuring proper security and scalability.
• Solid knowledge and practical experience with cybersecurity principles and secure coding practices.
• Ability to diagnose complex production issues and efficiently resolve problems under pressure.
• Experience working in an Agile development environment, demonstrating adaptability and a continuous improvement mindset.
• You are a proactive problem-solver with keen attention to detail, excellent communication skills, and a proven ability to collaborate effectively within diverse teams.
• You are adaptable, quickly learning new languages and domains as needed. You confidently embrace ownership of tasks, even in unfamiliar areas.
• You balance creativity with practicality, recognising when to innovate and when structure is required. Beyond coding, you understand the importance of solution design, planning, documentation, monitoring, automation, and incident management.
• Nice to have experience with publishing to the third-party marketplaces.
