• Microservices Architecture: Implement microservices that are modular, maintainable, and optimized for scalability.

• System Integration: Build reliable integrations with internal and external systems, including cloud services.

• Security Compliance: Implement robust API security using authentication and authorization standards (e.g., OAuth2, JWT).

• Performance Optimization: Monitor and tune backend services for performance, including caching and rate limiting strategies.

• Testing & Validation: Write and maintain comprehensive unit, integration, and performance tests.

• Documentation: Maintain accurate and accessible API specifications and technical documentation.

• DevOps Collaboration: Work with DevOps teams to ensure smooth CI/CD processes and containerized deployments.
