• Deep understanding of object-oriented programming, RESTful API design, and microservice architecture, with hands-on experience in delivering production-ready code.
• Proven experience integrating with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services, particularly Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) for container orchestration and Pub/Sub for asynchronous messaging.
