Cloud Architecture & AWS
Expertise in cloud environments with AWS, including AWS IAM, AWS Lambda, and AWS Certified Solutions Architect certification. Design and deployment of infrastructure using Kubernetes and GitOps practices, combined with CI/CD automation.

Event-Driven Architecture & Microservices
Strong background in event-driven architectures using Apache Kafka and SQS for high-throughput, zero-loss and low-latency communication between distributed microservices. Experience with large-scale data import and export pipelines to destinations such as S3 and SFTP.

Identity & Access Management (IAM/OIDC/OAuth)
Deep expertise in OIDC and OAuth protocols, permission management with RBAC/IAM, and integrations with identity providers such as Okta, Auth0 and AWS Cognito, including SSO, social login and federation with Google, Microsoft and similar accounts.

Hexagonal Architecture & Domain-Driven Design
Application of hexagonal architecture and Domain-Driven Design (DDD) to organize code into isolated contexts, ensuring business logic has no external dependencies. Contexts communicate exclusively through message buses such as Query Bus and Command Bus.

CI/CD & DevOps
Design and configuration of Jenkins pipelines and migration of 30+ microservices from Jenkins to ArgoCD. Creation of Dockerfiles for containerization and administration of Kubernetes clusters ensuring stability, scalability and security.

Backend Development (Java, Golang, NodeJS, TypeScript)
Full-cycle backend development using Java, Golang, NodeJS and TypeScript. Experience building high-throughput microservices and GraphQL APIs, as well as developing recommendation engines and data processing solutions.

Testing Strategy
Application of a three-layer testing strategy: unit tests on use cases with mocked infrastructure, integration tests against real services without mocking, and acceptance tests that validate functionality end-to-end. Focus on tests that add value.

Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
Certified HashiCorp Terraform Associate with hands-on experience using Terraform for infrastructure provisioning and management across cloud environments.

GraphQL API Development
Unification of product catalogs into a single, highly optimized GraphQL API, reducing latency and streamlining client-side integrations. Experience with Spring and GraphQL in production microservices environments.
