  • Experienced with Java and Spring Boot Framework
  • Demonstrating a firm reliance on unit testing and mocking frameworks

  • Energized by solving repetitive, complex problems systematically
  • Open to coaching by senior engineers with deep experience
  • Excellent communicators with strong English skills
  • Assertive team players who value collaboration
