• 10+ years of proven back-end development & architecture experience
• Deep Java & Spring Boot expertise (core concepts + design patterns)
• Strong knowledge of microservices, distributed systems, event-driven design
• Advanced database skills: relational + NoSQL, query optimisation, data modelling
• Hands-on with AWS, Docker/Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines
• A problem-solver who values elegant, scalable architecture
• Tertiary qualification in IT preferred
