- Collaborating on system design and integration with relational databases
- Engaging directly with stakeholders and tech leads in a fast-moving project
Required Experience
- 2+ years backend development in Java and/or Kotlin within financial systems
- Strong knowledge of Kubernetes, Docker & MongoDB
- Hands-on with Databricks and exposure to relational DBs
- Familiarity with CI/CD, Git, unit testing, and debugging
