• Demonstrated expertise in full‑stack JavaScript and TypeScript development, delivering high‑quality, scalable solutions.
• Strong proficiency with React (Hooks, Redux, React Router) and modern front‑end engineering practices.
• Proven ability to design and build scalable microservices architectures using Node.js, applying clean coding and modular design principles.
• Familiarity with GraphQL (Apollo server, Hot Chocolate, etc.) for building efficient and flexible APIs (a plus).
• Solid understanding of relational and non‑relational databases, including MongoDB, PostgreSQL, and MySQL.
• Experience implementing DevOps practices, containerisation, and working with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
• Strong knowledge of CI/CD pipelines and modern deployment strategies to ensure smooth, reliable releases.
• Skilled in automated testing using frameworks such as Jest, Mocha, Cypress, Playwright, or Storybook.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with experience in consulting or client‑facing environments.
