  • In-memory data stores and caches (Redis, Memcache)
  • Version control system (Git)
  • Messages queue and event streaming (Kafka, Kinesis, Redis Streams, SNS, SQS)
  • A propensity towards quality by leveraging unit tests, integration tests, and telemetry 
  • Comfortable presenting and challenging technical decisions in a peer review environment
  • Continuous development
