Hands-on experience operating services in production (such as working with CI/CD pipelines, observability tools, and incident response) and using data to drive reliability and performance improvements.
Demonstrated ability to work across multiple functional domains or tech stacks (for example, back-end services with some exposure to front-end or data systems) and to contribute effectively in cross-team collaborations.
Growing expertise in applying AI-assisted development tools or workflows (for example, code generation, intelligent testing, or AI-supported diagnostics) to increase engineering productivity while maintaining code quality and security.
Hands-on experience in software development using Java or similar object-oriented programming languages, or Scala or Kotlin or similar functional languages
Optimize for low-latency and high-throughput processing (1M+ TPS) microservices.
