  • Proficiency designing and consuming REST APIs, including authentication, authorization, and rate limiting.
  • Experience with event-driven architectures and message queues such as Kafka or Pub/Sub, and debugging complex state machines.
  • Experience with PostgreSQL or MySQL, including data modeling and query optimization, plus SQL-based product or system analysis.
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD, version control, automated testing, and code review.
  • Strong computer science fundamentals and experience with distributed systems.
  • Experience with Go and Google Cloud Platform is a plus.
