You Have:

Education:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.

Experience:

  • 5+ years of backend development experience.
  • Strong proficiency in one or more programming languages, such as Python, Golang, or Java.
  • Experience designing and implementing RESTful APIs and Microservices Architectures.
  • Experience with cloud platforms, such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform, and familiarity with IAM services and features.
  • Curiosity and/or experience with GenAI technologies, multi-agent systems, or prompt orchestration.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to effectively communicate technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
