- UI Design: You should have an eye for design and be comfortable designing your own user interfaces and solutions.
Requirements
- Strong experience in backend web development, particularly with Python and Django.
- Proficiency in PostgreSQL and SQL.
- Experience with JavaScript and familiarity with front-end frameworks like Vue and React.
- Ability to engage with users and translate business needs into technical solutions.
