• Utilize containerization technologies (e.g., Docker) and manage solutions deployed on Kubernetes clusters (in-house or public cloud).
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver solutions for diverse customer needs, including B2B eCommerce platforms, multi-brand/country/channel product data management, and industry-specific digitalization projects.
• Engage in the full software development lifecycle, including requirements engineering and business analysis to translate customer needs into technical solutions.
• Communicate effectively and directly with customers to clarify requirements, provide updates, and resolve issues.
• Participate actively in agile software development processes (e.g., SCRUM), contributing to team goals and continuous improvement.

• Demonstrated commitment, proactivity, and willingness to take ownership of tasks and projects.
