• Develop end-to-end features (frontend and backend) autonomously, ensuring efficient integration between user interfaces and APIs. • Analyze and resolve medium to high complexity issues independently, using sound debugging and investigation practices. • Actively contribute to technical estimates and refinements, offering critical insight into implementation feasibility and timelines. • Write clean, testable, and maintainable code, following the architectural standards defined by the Chapter Leader and Architecture team. • Participate collaboratively in code reviews, focusing on maintaining team standards and promoting mutual learning. • Support the technical growth of Junior Developers and Interns by sharing knowledge and assisting in day-to-day tasks. • Work closely with Product Owners, QAs, and other developers to ensure the technical solution meets business needs. • Actively participate in team ceremonies (daily stand-ups, retrospectives, planning sessions), suggesting improvements to development processes and the squad's agility.

• Demonstrate strong working knowledge, skills, and understanding of practices for complex programs and initiatives demonstrating creativity and substantial understanding of specialized techniques, processes, procedures. • Troubleshoot issues and problems of medium complexity for major software applications; break down complex tasks, make reasonable decisions, investigate and fix bugs, and operate independently. • Initiate independent designs that impact and influence the department’s delivery and approach. • Lead reviewing design alternatives, problems, and solutions with an eye on limiting the need for later problem solving. • Consistently influence and make significant decisions within a project, demonstrating good judgment in selecting methods and techniques for obtaining solutions based in a solid understanding of business strategy and best practices with minimal instructions for difficult or unpredictable situations. • Contribute individual capabilities to the achievement of group objectives, and work effectively with others in a group setting. This includes mentoring, coaching, and technical guidance for junior members of the team. • Build successful internal and external partnerships with peers, SMEs, stakeholders, and decision-makers. • Communicate clear and concise project plans/designs and status updates for a project. • Ability to work nights and/or weekends, as needed.

• Think product-first — own outcomes, not just tickets, and ensure work delivers real customer impact • Design, build, and ship features end-to-end, from problem definition through production • Use AI as a core part of your workflow — writing specs, generating code, and critically evaluating outputs • Practice augmented coding — maintaining high standards for code quality, testing, and system design • Navigate ambiguity by prototyping, iterating, and validating solutions with real data • Contribute across the full stack (Node, TypeScript, React) in a cloud-native environment (AWS/GCP) • Improve and evolve a large, interconnected production codebase • Debug complex issues across services and make sound architectural decisions • Own production systems, including observability, reliability, deployments, and on-call responsibilities • Collaborate closely with engineers through code reviews, pairing, and shared problem solving • Transfer knowledge and best practices through hands-on work, not just documentation • Influence technical direction within your pod and contribute to broader engineering improvements • Help define and evolve engineering practices, especially around AI-native development • Step in to lead ambiguous or high-impact problems, and step back to enable others when appropriate • Leave systems and teams better than you found them
