• Strong understanding of ETL concepts, data quality, and transformation pipelines.

• Experience with REST APIs, messaging systems, and asynchronous architectures.

• Solid understanding of relational databases and SQL.

• Experience working with NoSQL data stores.

• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and modern development practices.

• Ability to interpret technical architecture diagrams and translate them into working, maintainable solutions.

• Build mechanisms to correct, reprocess, or quarantine problematic data.

4. Build Secure, Scalable API Integrations

• Implement REST endpoints behind API Gateway and integrate with Cognito/SSO authentication.

• Ensure correct handling of authentication tokens, authorization rules, and API throttling patterns.

5. Collaborate on System Design and Architecture

• Contribute to design discussions and refinements of the overall architecture.

• Ensure solutions align with cloud best practices and support long-term scalability.

• Provide guidance to junior developers and participate in peer reviews.

6. Quality, Testing, and DevOps Alignment
