• Interpret and utilise API documentation, schemas, and endpoint specifications.
• Use tools such as Postman for testing, validation, and troubleshooting.

• Collaborate with technical and functional teams to support end‑to‑end integration flows.
• Assist with write‑back and bi‑directional data exchange where required.

• Strong experience in API integration development.
• Proficiency in handling JSON, XML, and data transformation workflows.
