- Collaborate with product owners, architects, and other developers to understand requirements, define technical specifications, and deliver innovative solutions.

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
- Professional experience in Java development.
- Strong expertise in Core Java, including multithreading, data structures, algorithms, and object‑oriented design principles.
- Extensive experience with Spring Framework and Spring Boot for building microservices and RESTful APIs.
- Solid understanding and hands‑on experience with relational databases (, Postgre
SQL, Oracle, MySQL, SQL Server), including advanced SQL, schema design, and ORM frameworks (, Hibernate, JPA). - Experience with building and consuming RESTful web services.
- Proficiency with build tools such as Maven or Gradle.
- Experience with version control systems, particularly Git.
- Familiarity with Agile development methodologies (Scrum, Kanban).
- Strong problem‑solving skills, attention to detail, and ability to work independently and as part of a team.
- Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
- Experience with No

- Understanding of CI/CD pipelines and tools (, Jenkins, Git Lab CI, Git Hub Actions).
