Testing & Quality Assurance :

- Write unit, integration, and functional tests using Jest, Mocha, Chai, or Supertest.

- Participate in code reviews and maintain high coding standards.

- Collaborate with QA teams to ensure bug-free and reliable releases.

DevOps & Deployment:

- Collaborate with DevOps teams to manage CI/CD pipelines, automated builds, and deployments.

- Deploy applications on cloud platforms like AWS, GCP, or Azure.

- Monitor backend services for performance, uptime, and errors.

Agile Collaboration :

- Participate in Agile/Scrum ceremonies including daily stand-ups, sprint planning, and retrospectives.

- Work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver features on time.

- Communicate technical challenges, solutions, and progress effectively.

Required Skills :

- Strong experience in Node.js and frameworks such as Express.js, NestJS, or Fastify.
