Excellent teamwork, communication, and collaboration skills.
Desired Skills
Experience with NoSQL databases (Couchbase, Elasticsearch) and familiarity with SQL, NoSQL, and Elastic query languages.
Knowledge of modern React libraries (e.g., React Query).
Proficiency with unit testing tools (React Testing Library, Jest) and integration testing frameworks (Playwright).
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and containerization tools such as Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Jenkins, or GitLab.
