Core Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, configure, test, debug and document applications and system components
• Participate in technical and API design, including RESTful services
• Translate functional requirements and analysis into sound technical solutions
• Participate actively in architecture, design and code reviews
• Develop and maintain operational and system-level documentation
