All roles require digital fluency, including the ability to work with emerging technologies such as Generative AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot) to support everyday work.
Key Responsibilities:
- Collaborate with stakeholders to determine requirements for product components and incorporate feedback into future designs or solutions.
- Translate functional requirements into system designs and communicate component interactions, ensuring alignment with business needs and timelines.
- Design and develop product components, refine code plans, and lead design reviews to ensure completeness and adherence to requirements.
- Contribute to project estimation, considering delivery costs and escalating issues that may cause delays.
- Lead by example in creating, implementing, and maintaining extensible, reusable code, and drive code quality through metrics and best practices.
- Apply debugging tools to resolve moderately complex issues and identify opportunities for automation across products.
- Lead code reviews, ensuring adherence to coding standards and providing feedback to team members.
- Create complex test plans, identify test gaps, and proactively address defects to minimize customer impact.
- Leverage data analysis and monitoring standards to identify patterns and defects in all environments.
- Respond to incidents during on-call rotations, troubleshoot complex issues, and assist in incident response and resolution.
- Build, enhance, and identify new developer tools to support programs and applications.
- Proactively seek new knowledge and adapt to trends and technical solutions to improve product performance and recommend resources to other engineers.
