• You have experience with RESTful APIs and understand how to design endpoints that serve frontend applications.
• You're familiar with frontend basics (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and are eager to deepen your skills in React and Angular.
• You're curious about the full request flow from UI click to database query and want to understand how all the pieces fit together.
• You excel at collaborating in a distributed team environment, proactively engaging with teammates while being self-directed in your work
