• Building and maintaining automated testing frameworks (API, service & UI)
• Working with CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps / GitHub Actions)
• Implementing performance, security, and accessibility testing
• Maintaining robust pipelines in collaboration with Platform Engineering
• Participating in design sessions and identifying risks early
• Working closely with Product throughout the full delivery lifecycle

🔧 Essential Experience

• Strong programming experience in Golang (or Java/C# with a desire to work in Go)
• Experience with SQL (PostgreSQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB)
• Exposure to Kafka or other messaging systems
• Solid understanding of CI/CD pipelines
• Experience with Cloud providers (Azure or AWS)
• Experience with microservices, Kubernetes, and modern architectural patterns (DDD, Hexagonal)
• Experience building or supporting high-traffic, high-performance systems
• Strong analytical and problem-solving ability
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills
