• Actively contribute to iterative sprint cycles by participating in peer code reviews, engaging with users, and proactively resolving issues
• Implement CI/CD pipelines and contribute to automation efforts
• Ensure application observability through proper logging, metrics, and monitoring instrumentation
• Contribute to the technical community by sharing best practices, publishing internal tech blogs, leading knowledge‑sharing sessions, or mentoring peers across engineering teams
