  • Experience working with APIs and basic system integrations
  • Familiarity with databases (SQL or NoSQL)

  • Version control basics (Git)
  • Clear written and verbal communication
  • Ability to work in structured but evolving delivery environments

Soft Skills
  • Curiosity and willingness to learn in complex environments
  • Structured problem-solving mindset
  • Professional communication with customers and internal teams
  • Ability to work collaboratively with guidance
  • Excellent communication, analytical, and problem-solving skills
  • Demonstrated teamwork and leadership abilities

Q͏ualifications
  • Recent graduate of a Master's degree program in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field
  • Minimum of a 3.0 on a 4.0 GPA scale
