* Own document & PDF processing pipelines end-to-end:     

-Composition     

-Rendering     

-Optimization     

- High-volume generation 

* Make hard technical decisions and stand by them

Non-Negotiable Skills

* Experience with message brokers (ActiveMQ, Kafka, RabbitMQ) 

* Exposure to Kubernetes-based deployments or large-scale microservices 

Interview Focus (Be Prepared)
