• Cloud Architecture: Architect and deploy serverless solutions using AWS Lambda and DynamoDB.
• Infrastructure as Code: Take ownership of infrastructure provisioning and management using Terraform.
• Database Management: Work with both NoSQL (DynamoDB) and relational databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL) to ensure data integrity and performance.
• Modernization: Occasionally assist in the maintenance of legacy Java applications, focusing on version migrations and bug fixes.
• DevOps Culture: Maintain code quality and automation through Git/GitHub and robust CI/CD pipelines.

Requirements

• Strong Python Skills: Deep understanding of Python internals, asynchronous programming, and backend frameworks.
• Terraform Expertise: Proven experience writing modular, scalable Terraform code for production environments.
• AWS Proficiency: Strong hands‑on experience with the AWS ecosystem, specifically Lambda (serverless patterns) and DynamoDB.
• Relational Databases: Solid experience with SQL, schema design, and query optimization in MySQL or PostgreSQL.
• Version Control & CI/CD: Proficiency with Git, GitHub workflows, and setting up/managing CI/CD pipelines.
