  • Some programming experience (Python or another language).

  • Understanding of basic software engineering concepts and willingness to learn about REST APIs and system integrations.

  • Interest in working with databases (e.g., SQL, NoSQL).

  • Good communication skills in English.

  • Collaborative mindset and motivation to ask questions and seek feedback.

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to Python frameworks (FastAPI, Flask, Django, etc.).

  • Familiarity with version control (Git).

  • Awareness of cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, etc.), containerization (Docker), or microservices.

Why Join Us?

  • Contribute to impactful backend solutions used by global enterprises.
