• Ensure APIs are well‑documented using standard API documentation tools.
• Implement proper error handling, validation, and logging.
• Deploy and maintain services on cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS).
• Work with containerized services for development and deployment.
• Collaborate with senior engineers on infrastructure provisioning and environment setup.
• Participate in CI/CD workflows and version control using Git.
• Work closely with product managers and business analysts to clarify requirements and edge cases.
