  5. Experience with version control systems, particularly using Bit Bucket.
  6. Familiarity with Agile/Scrum development methodologies.
  7. Experience working in collaboration with product managers, UX/UI designers, and stakeholders.
  8. Strong understanding of code versioning tools such as Git and a good understanding of SEO principles.
  9. Ability to understand business requirements and translate them into technical requirements.
  10. Ability to troubleshoot and debug issues reported by users or identified during testing phases.
