• Strong understanding of software architecture, design patterns, and best practices, with a track record of applying them to scalable systems.
• Experience designing, building, and maintaining distributed systems and microservices architectures.
• Experience developing systems that require high availability, observability, security, and strong operational excellence.
• Experience with MongoDB or other NoSQL databases.
