Your Role and Responsibilities
Full stack developers should be able to work in the modern cloud‑native environment. The cloud‑native solutions are built around microservices‑based modular designs, API‑driven microservices, continuous release and improvement cycle via Agile, event‑driven architectures, containerized workloads, serverless architectures, purpose databases and progressive web applications based on SPA and microfrontends.
• Developing rich UI applications based on SPA or microfrontends
• Frameworks: ReactJS, Angular (any one of these)
• Development of scalable and resilient backend microservices based on 12‑factor principles, a bounded context of the business domain and expose the functionality via API and event interfaces
• Development to data model in modern SQL and No‑SQL modelling techniques
• Knowledge of microservices purpose programming languages
• Runtimes: Java > 8, GraalVM, NodeJS, Python, .NET (proficient in one of these)
• Frameworks: Springboot (must have), Quarkus, Django, Express.js
• Proficiency of hyperscaler cloud services and frameworks
• Developing event‑driven applications using Kafka, Zookeeper
• Knowledge of cloud‑native CI/CD for change release
• Knowledge in Test‑Driven Development
• AWS full‑stack developers need to be proficient in running and managing services on AWS: PaaS: EKS, ECS, Fargate, Lambda, ROSA; Content: CloudFront, Lambda@Edge; Routing services: API Gateway, ALB, NLB, Route53; Databases: AWS Aurora, RDS, DynamoDB; Event Driven: SQS, SNS, Kinesis Streams, Dynamo Streams, AWS MQ, AWS MSKafka; Observability: CloudWatch, X‑Ray, Event‑Bus; DevSecOps: CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, CodePipeline, CodeCommit, Tekton, KMS, Secrets Manager, IAM, Cognito, OIDC, CloudFormation, SAM, BeansTalk; Storage: S3; Networking: VPC, EC2.
