• Strong experience with the PANN technology stack (PostgreSQL, Angular, NestJS, Node.js) and modern web development frameworks.
• Experience designing and developing microservices architectures.
• Experience using Prisma for data modeling, database access, and schema migrations.
• Strong knowledge of JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML, CSS, REST APIs, and modern application architectures.

• Experience containerizing applications and services with Docker or Kubernetes, and deploying, configuring, and managing web servers, load balancers, and reverse proxies such as Nginx and Apache.
• Experience with cloud-based application development and deployment.
• Experience building and maintaining continuous integration, continuous delivery, and deployment pipelines.
• Practical experience with AI technologies, including large language models, prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), knowledge extraction, and automation workflows.
• Strong understanding of software development lifecycle practices, testing methodologies, and secure coding principles.
• Experience integrating multiple systems through APIs and data services.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Who You Are:

• Self-directed and comfortable working independently.
• Able to balance strategic thinking with hands-on implementation.
• Curious about emerging technologies and eager to apply them to real business problems.
• A strong problem solver who can work with incomplete information and still deliver practical outcomes.
