• Strong experience in cloud messaging systems (preferably Kafka).
• Experience with NoSQL databases, especially DynamoDB, including experience in migrating data and applications to DynamoDB.
• Familiarity with AWS services such as API Gateway, Step Functions, EventBridge, and S3.
• Strong understanding of RESTful APIs, microservices architecture, and event‑driven design.

Preferred Qualifications

• AWS Certifications (Developer Associate, Solutions Architect, etc.) are a plus.
• Experience in Agile/Scrum environments.
• Prior experience working in large‑scale enterprise software environments.
