- Experience building backend services with Node.js and TypeScript.
- Working knowledge of Docker and containerised deployments.
- Experience with workflow automation/orchestration tools (n8n, Zapier, or similar).
- Understanding of data modelling concepts and best practices.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to data quality.
- Experience integrating with Zoho CRM using Deluge and JavaScript.
- Familiarity with low-code / AI automation platforms (Base44, n8n).
- Experience using AI developer tools such as Claude Code and LLM-based assistants.
- Front-end exposure (React, Tailwind CSS, Framer Motion) for building internal data tools.
- Experience working in an Agile/Scrum environment.
- Background in financial services, or investment domains.
