Hands-on experience with application migration and modernization to cloud (rehost, replatform, refactor).
Strong understanding of microservices, API-first, and distributed system architectures.
Ability to lead architecture design while remaining hands-on with development.
Experience conducting code reviews, enforcing coding standards, and ensuring security best practices.
Strong troubleshooting skills with ability to resolve complex production issues and optimize performance.
