    • Experience working with complex enterprise applications or business-critical systems.
    • Comfortable with hands-on testing, debugging, and detailed data analysis.

    Nice to Have
    • Experience with LLMs or agentic AI frameworks such as LangChain, AutoGen, or CrewAI.
    • C, C#/.NET, or Java experience.
    • Docker, Ansible, Linux/Unix scripting, or infrastructure-as-code experience.
    • Experience with messaging, APIs, distributed systems, or enterprise integrations.
    • Performance testing experience with tools such as k6, JMeter, or Locust.
