- The platform includes three integration types: 1:1 proxy endpoints, endpoints with structured request/response mapping, and aggregating endpoints across multiple backend services (via AWS Lambda).
- Development and maintenance of REST endpoints based on AWS API Gateway
- Implementation of the three integration types: 1:1 proxy, mapping-based, and aggregating (Lambda)
- Endpoint design and versioning according to specified conventions
