- Back-end:
- Design and optimise microservices using domain-driven design, 12-factor principles, and event-driven patterns.
- Model SQL/NoSQL databases for cloud applications.
- Programming: Code in Java (.NET Core, Spring Boot/Quarkus), Node.js, Python, or JavaScript.
- Cloud Integration: Deploy containerised or serverless workloads on AWS or Azure (e.g., EKS, AKS, Lambda, Serverless Functions).
- Event Systems: Implement messaging using Kafka, SQS, SNS, Event Grid, or Service Bus.
- DevOps Excellence: Adopt CI/CD pipelines, DevSecOps, and Test-Driven Development.
- Collaboration: Work cross-functionally to drive high-quality, end-to-end development.
- Mentorial Lead: Depending on experience, guide peers or lead technical components.
