Key job responsibilities
- Design and implement software solutions that enable new features and improve existing systems, applying sound judgment when making tradeoffs between scalability, maintainability, performance, and security.
- Own the full development lifecycle for major portions of your team's software, including scoping, coding, testing, deployment, and operational support, ensuring root causes of issues are identified and permanently resolved.
