  4. Strong security mindset, with knowledge of authentication, authorization, and data protection best practices.
Soft Skills
  1. Critical thinker and problem solver, able to navigate trade-offs between short-term deliverables and long-term system health.
  2. Strong communication skills, capable of explaining complex backend challenges to developers, architects, and business stakeholders.
