  • Frameworks & Architecture: Strong experience with Quarkus (preferred) or Spring Boot. Deep expertise in microservices, event-driven systems, and distributed application design.
  • Data & APIs: Mastery of API design/integration (publisher & consumer), JDBC, ORM frameworks, and MongoDB.
  • Cloud & DevOps: Hands-on experience deploying/managing applications on GCP, paired with strong Git-based source control and Agile/Kanban delivery.
Bonus Points For:
