• Proficiency in reading and interpreting API documentation.

• Experience with Python libraries such as Requests, Zeep (for SOAP), and tools like Postman for testing APIs.

• Experience working with SQL and NoSQL databases to store and manage retrieved data.

• Strong understanding of how to schedule and automate tasks (e.g., cron jobs, Celery, or APScheduler).

• Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work independently.
