• TypeScript Expertise: Strong proficiency with TypeScript, demonstrating solid understanding of type systems and their practical application.
• js Backend Development: Strong hands‑on experience building backend services with Node.js using frameworks such as Express, Hono, or Fastify, including REST API development, data handling, authentication, and database integration.
• Database Architecture: Strong experience with relational databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, or similar) including schema design, query optimization, data modeling, and database architecture decisions; familiarity with ORMs such as Prisma or Drizzle.
• API Design & Architecture: Strong experience designing and implementing RESTful APIs or GraphQL with proper architecture, structure, documentation, and best practices.
• Frontend Familiarity: Basic familiarity with React and Next.js; able to understand frontend code and collaborate effectively with frontend developers.
• Go: Experience with Go programming language is a plus.
• Cloud & DevOps: Experience with AWS services, Docker containerization, and CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar).
• Problem‑Solving Excellence: Strong analytical skills with ability to tackle complex technical and architectural challenges independently.
• Communication & Collaboration: Strong communication skills in English with ability to explain technical concepts and architectural decisions clearly to both technical and non‑technical audiences; ability to coordinate and align team members effectively.
• Self‑Driven & Proactive: Self‑motivated, proactive, able to identify technical opportunities and problems independently while keeping the team aligned and informed.
