experience:
microservices, event-driven architecture, message queues, eventual consistency.
• Database design: PostgreSQL (primary), Redis (caching + pub/sub), and time-series workloads.
• Kubernetes + Docker in production. You've managed EKS/GKE clusters, written Helm charts, and configured auto-scaling policies.
• API design philosophy. You care about consistent response formats, proper HTTP semantics, pagination patterns, and error handling. Bonus Points
