  • Strong experience with vanilla Kotlin and Java/Spring Boot development.
  • Demonstrated expertise building and supporting enterprise-scale API platforms, including REST APIs and GraphQL.
  • Experience designing and implementing solutions using Kafka and PostgreSQL.
  • Production experience working with large-scale data processing, large-file processing, and batch processing systems.
  • Experience implementing and supporting scalable caching solutions in production environments.
  • Familiarity with AI-assisted software development tools such as GitHub Copilot or similar solutions.
  • Strong understanding of automated testing frameworks, CI/CD practices, and Agile software development methodologies.
  • Experience designing scalable, secure, and highly available distributed systems.

  • Experience developing and deploying Agentic AI solutions, including production-ready AI agents.
  • Experience building Conversational AI applications, particularly for customer-facing or service-oriented use cases.
  • Experience integrating AI/LLM capabilities into enterprise applications and business workflows.
