• Help design solutions so that processes and applications work together across the modules of a product.
• Weigh trade-offs when designing a component against business requirements.
• Help turn high-level designs into detailed designs with mock screens, pseudocode, and functional logic for modules and components.
• Write and configure lean code for a whole component or application, making sure it meets business, technical, and non-functional needs, with low maintenance, high availability, and high scalability.
• Help choose languages, development standards, and tools for coding and configuration.

• Write scripts that automate repetitive and routine tasks in CI/CD, testing, and other processes.
• Build telemetry features on your own as needed.
• Make sure security policy requirements are applied in code and configuration.
• Translate customer requirements into test objectives.
• Design test cases for components and modules, run them, and find errors and defects across the whole component.
