You Will:- Design and build medium-complexity, scalable, and maintainable solutions that meet product requirements, keeping principles like SOLID and DRY in mind.
- Write clear, well-structured technical design documents that align your squad and guide implementation, incorporating feedback as designs evolve.
- Write modular, reusable, testable code, and ensure your squad's testing standards (unit, integration, end-to-end, and manual) are followed throughout development and delivery.
- Provide constructive feedback in code reviews, with consistent attention to conventions, functionality, and test coverage.
- Take ownership of technical debt by contributing fixes, proposing priorities, and balancing it against feature work.
- Participate in product discovery to assess feasibility, explore user needs, and help validate ideas with prototypes and experiments.
- Work with other engineers to ensure clean integration and communication across systems and services.
- Implement basic observability (logging, monitoring, and alerting) for the systems you develop, and identify and resolve minor performance or reliability issues.
- Break down medium-complexity projects into clear, actionable tasks and drive them from planning through delivery, seeking guidance when blocked.
- Analyze performance metrics and user feedback to identify and act on opportunities for improvement.
- Create and maintain technical documentation for the systems and processes you work on.
- Share knowledge with peers, suggest improvements to workflows and tools, and propose ideas for continuous improvement within your squad.
- Contribute to the hiring process by assisting with technical screens or interviews where appropriate, and help coach new hires or interns on fundamental technical skills.
