You understand topics, partitions, and how to process streams of data asynchronously. • Distributed Systems Knowledge: You understand the challenges of microservices, eventual consistency, and data resiliency. • Stateful Processing Logic: Experience calculating "state" from a history of events. You understand how to take a stream of raw data and "collapse" it into a current status. • DevOps Mindset: Hands-on experience with Terraform for infrastructure-as-code and observability tools like Datadog to monitor metrics and graphs. • Database Experience: Proficiency with SQL and NoSQL data stores (PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, or similar) to store and retrieve state data.
