  • Expertise in software architecture and system design, with strong knowledge of modern data pipelines
  • Hands‑on experience with programming languages such as Python, Java, or Node.js is required
  • Proven track record of designing, developing, and operating production‑grade data pipelines and web services
  • Solid understanding of API management platforms and API lifecycle best practices
