- Hands-on experience with MongoDB and Redis (including practical experience with Redis Streams or similar pub/sub/stream processing).
- Familiarity with Kubernetes and containerized deployments.
- Good understanding of system design fundamentals: APIs, data modeling, performance, scalability, and reliability.
