  • Technical Leadership and Best Practices
    • Promote best practices including modular design, code reviews, reusable components, documentation, and release discipline.
    • Guide developers and contribute to solution design decisions while remaining hands-on in delivery.
    • Collaborate with business analysts, security teams, architects, and application owners to deliver practical, scalable solutions.

Core Competencies:
  • Deep hands-on UiPath development expertise, including workflow design, selectors, exception handling, logging, and reusable automation patterns.
  • Strong understanding of UiPath platform concepts including Orchestrator, tenants, folders, assets, queues, robots, triggers, and role-based access.
  • Strong troubleshooting skills across automation code, runtime environments, credential access, and infrastructure dependencies.
  • Ability to guide developers, influence solution quality, and contribute to design decisions while staying hands-on.
  • Commitment to secure development, documentation quality, and enterprise best practices.
