•       Solid understanding of Node.js, Express.js, RESTful API design, and MongoDB schema design.

•       Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, Git-based workflows, and cloud deployment on AWS or equivalent platforms.

•       Proficiency with automated testing frameworks such as Jest, Mocha, and/or Cypress.

•       Demonstrated use of AI-assisted coding tools integrated into day-to-day development practices.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS (GOOD TO HAVE):

•       Exposure to IoT systems or prior experience with hardware device integration.

•       Experience with real-time data technologies, including WebSocket.

•       Professional background in agriculture, climate-tech, or rural technology sectors.

•       Working knowledge of TypeScript or serverless computing architectures.

KEY COMPETENCIES:

•       Strong problem-solving ability and analytical thinking, with a focus on applying Data Structures and Algorithms and Low-Level Design (LLD) principles to solve complex technical challenges efficiently and effectively.

•       High ownership mindset with the ability to drive features independently.
