Responsibilities

Deliver features end to end with guidance by implementing well-scoped tasks across APIs, services, and UIs, taking ownership from design notes through implementation, testing, and release while escalating risks early

Maintain high code quality by writing clear, tested code; adding unit and integration tests; fixing bugs; reducing technical debt; documenting changes; and participating in code reviews as both an author and reviewer

Build operational awareness by instrumenting services with logs, metrics, and traces; creating dashboards and alerts; and participating in on-call shadowing to learn how reliable systems are operated at scale

Use AI responsibly by leveraging tools such as code assistants, test generators, and documentation summarizers to accelerate development while validating outputs, citing sources in PRs when appropriate, and never bypassing human review

Collaborate and grow by working closely with product managers, designers, and fellow engineers; asking thoughtful questions; sharing updates in standups; seeking feedback; pair programming; and building skills across backend, frontend, data, and cloud technologies

Demonstrate a strong learner’s mindset by asking thoughtful questions, seeking feedback, and quickly applying it to improve your work

Execute well-defined tasks reliably, delivering on time and proactively raising risks or blockers when they arise

Write high-quality, readable code by following team conventions, adding appropriate tests, and using established checklists

Maintain strong documentation practices by leaving systems better than you found them through inline comments, PR descriptions, runbooks, and lightweight design notes
