* Strong full-stack engineering background across both front-end and back-end systems.
* Hands-on experience with a major cloud provider (AWS, Azure or GCP) and exposure to IaC (Terraform, CloudFormation or equivalent).
* Experience working with large, complex codebases and contributing to legacy-to-cloud modernisation initiatives.
* Proficiency with modern back-end development (Node.js, Java, .NET or similar) and modern front-end frameworks
Desirable:
* Knowledge of S-101 (ENC) and broader S-100 product specifications.
* Experience integrating with chart-compilation tools, maritime data services, or GIS platforms.
* Familiarity with Azure DevOps, CI/CD pipelines and automated testing practices.
* Exposure to geospatial data processing, maritime visualisation tools or workflows.
