• Collaborate with business analysts and technical team members to ensure solutions align with strategic goals.

Development

• Develop and consume REST APIs to facilitate integration with external platforms.
• Ensure high test coverage and performance by writing unit and integration test cases.
• Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues with a focus on long-term sustainability.

• Manage technical tasks, risks, and dependencies across multiple projects.
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior developers and peers.
• Communicate effectively with internal and external stakeholders to manage expectations and deliver outcomes on time.
