• Deep understanding of what makes solutions scalable, resilient, maintainable, and sustainable.
• Knowledge of modern software delivery practices including CI/CD and DevOps.
• Experience identifying technical risks before they become production issues.

Security Mindset

• Secure coding principles
• PenTest Remediation
• API and application security
