Basic understanding of REST or RPC-style APIs, service-oriented design, and HTTP-based communication
Familiarity with Git, collaborative development workflows, and working within CI-supported delivery pipelines
Willingness to learn platform technologies, domain concepts, and team engineering practices
Strong communication skills and comfort working in a team-oriented environment

Preferred

Familiarity with Protocol Buffers, gRPC, or contract-first API development concepts
Experience with unit or integration testing in backend service environments
Interest in cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, and private clouds) and cloud-native service development
