  • Technical Skills:
  • Strong proficiency in Java and the Spring Boot framework.
  • Solid experience in building RESTful APIs and microservices.
  • Hands-on experience with both SQL (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) and NoSQL databases.
  • Familiarity with version control (Git), CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins), and Agile methodologies.
  • Experience in software analysis, debugging, and performance optimization.
  • Soft Skills:
  • Excellent problem-solving and analytical abilities.
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills.
  • Proactive, adaptable, and eager to learn new technologies.
  • Ability to work independently and manage own tasks within a team framework.
