  • Understanding of serverless architecture and containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes). 

  • Understanding of Java development with Spring (e.g., Boot, Cloud, Framework). 

  • Familiarity with Domain Driven Design (DDD) and its application in software development. 

  • Knowledge of API management, scaling strategies, and performance optimization for large-scale backend systems.
