• Design and optimize complex database schemas, including Redis caching, SQL/NoSQL, and data modeling.
• Develop real-time features using WebSockets, SignalR, or Kafka.
• Implement secure authentication and authorization using OAuth2, JWT, and Azure Active Directory (AAD).
• Apply network security best practices including HTTPS, CORS, CSRF, rate limiting, firewall rules, and private endpoints.
• Manage CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or Jenkins.
• Build and deploy Docker containers and manage infrastructure using Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) or Azure App Services.
• Work with Azure Blob Storage, Azure SQL, Cosmos DB, and other Azure-native data services.
• Collaborate on UI/UX design, ensuring consistency, accessibility, and responsiveness across platforms.
• Maintain frontend codebases with strong repo management, component reuse, and design system integration.
• Integrate third-party APIs and services with secure and efficient patterns.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams on system design, performance tuning, and feature planning.
Required Skills & Experience
• 5+ years of professional experience in full stack development.
• Strong backend development in .NET, Node.js, Spring Boot, and Express.js.
• Proficiency in React.js and modern frontend tooling.
• Experience with UI/UX design principles, responsive layouts, and component libraries (e.g., Material UI, Ant Design).
• Experience with microservice architecture, RESTful APIs, and event-driven systems.
• Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, and system design.
• Experience with Redis, SQL, and NoSQL databases.
• Familiarity with the core concepts of AI development to integrate with AI workflows using Python libraries like FastAPI, LangChain, and LangGraph.
• Real-time communication using WebSockets, gRPC, or Kafka.
• CI/CD experience with GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, or Jenkins.
• Hands-on experience with Azure cloud services including Azure Active Directory (AAD), Azure Blob Storage, Azure SQL Database, Cosmos DB, Azure App Services, and Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
• Strong repo management practices using Git (monorepo/multirepo strategies).
• Understanding of networking fundamentals (DNS, load balancing, firewalls, VPNs).
Additional Tech Stack Exposure (Preferred)
• TypeScript, Next.js, Tailwind CSS
• GraphQL, Apollo Client/Server
• Docker, Kubernetes, Helm
• Terraform, Pulumi (Infrastructure as Code)
• ElasticSearch, RabbitMQ, Kafka
