• Ensure high-quality, enterprise-grade development outcomes by tightly integrating work streams and enforcing consistent standards across all internal and external technology partners.
• Use Azure DevOps (or similar tools) for Git-based source control, work item tracking, and basic CI/CD pipelines for build and deployment.
• Support the monitoring of applications using logs, metrics, and dashboards (e.g., Azure Monitor, Application Insights) to help maintain application health and performance.
• Participate in code reviews, unit testing, and troubleshooting to ensure quality, reliability, and maintainability of delivered solutions.
• Collaborate with business analysts, process owners, and senior developers to translate business requirements into technical tasks and application features.
• Contribute to technical documentation, configuration notes, and simple user guides or runbooks for internal applications.
• Follow secure coding practices and company standards for identity, access control, and data protection; support compliance with data privacy and governance policies.
• Continuously develop skills in Azure, modern application development, DevOps, and AI/ML integration; share learnings with the broader team.

Core Competencies Sought:

• Business Orientation: Understands key business processes and builds solutions that improve team efficiency.
• Collaboration & Communication: Works well in cross-functional teams, contributes to design discussions, and explains technical concepts clearly.
