Familiarity with React and modern JavaScript/TypeScript, with the ability to implement basic UI changes when required.
Basic understanding of Node.js, especially for API integration or tooling.
Strong practical experience with AWS cloud services stack, such as Lambda, API Gateway, S3, AWS Secrets Manager, RDS/DynamoDB/Aurora, ECS/EKS.
Strong practical experience working with containers (Docker, K8s, etc.).
Understanding of software architecture, distributed systems, and cloud‑native design patterns, OOPS Principles, SOLID principles.
Experience with Git/GitHub or other modern source control systems.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience designing high‑scale, high‑availability cloud systems.
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (such as Jenkins, CloudBees, Spinnaker, etc.).
Understanding of GraphQL, WebSockets, or event‑driven architectures.
Awareness of AI‑assisted tooling (GitHub Copilot, code generation tools).
The Ideal Candidate
Hands‑on engineer with deep expertise in backend cloud development who enjoys mentoring others and driving technical clarity.
Someone who has delivered complex backend or full‑stack systems end‑to‑end in production environments.
Strong architectural thinking with the ability to balance long‑term vision with immediate needs.
Comfortable working across backend, cloud, and light UI layers.
Curious, open, and flexible to pick up new programming languages, tools, and design patterns as needed.
