Event-Driven Architecture: Experience with Kafka for distributed messaging and event-driven processing.

OTA Update Experience: Understanding of Over-the-Air (OTA) software update mechanisms for connected automotive or IoT devices.

Automotive Systems: Knowledge of automotive telematics, connected vehicles, and IoT sensor data processing.

Monitoring & Logging: Proficiency in tools like Grafana, CloudWatch, Prometheus, or ELK stack.

Security Best Practices: Knowledge of OAuth, JWT, API rate limiting, encryption, and secure authentication methods.

Microservices & Containerization: Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, and Avasa.

CI/CD & DevOps: Experience with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, or Terraform.

Additional (Nice to Have):

Prior experience in the automotive industry, connected vehicles, or embedded systems.

Experience with Serverless Framework or AWS SAM for Lambda-based architectures.

Knowledge of event-driven microservices and distributed system design patterns.

Experience working in agile development environments using Scrum/Kanban methodologies.
