Requirements
- A minimum of a bachelor's degree in computer science or a related technical field.
- At least 5 years of experience as a software developer, preferably with Java.
- Experience with cloud transitions, particularly Azure, microservices, Spring Boot, Gradle, and relational databases.
- Experience with operations within a complex domain and troubleshooting.
- Strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
- Ability to collaborate effectively and provide constructive feedback.
- Initiative and a commitment to continuous learning.
