    • Strong proficiency in Python, Golang and experience with Kubernetes.
    • Solid understanding of and experience with integrating with RESTful APIs and distributed systems.
    • Comfortable with testing frameworks, such as pytest.

    • Experience with software development best practices, such as code reviews, testing, CI/CD, version control, automation and debugging.
    • Ability to adjust to change and rapid pace of development.
    • Proactive approach to identifying and addressing issues, with a focus on ownership and accountability.
