Anticipate the solution risks and issues during requirements gathering phase, inform relevant stakeholders, and recommend corrective steps. Contribute to the creation of user stories for software components and applications. Track and analyze defects for the component or module and carry out regression testing to fix defects in all instances of code changes. Analyze defects from past software engineering solutions to avoid recurrence of similar defects. Troubleshoot performance and availability bottlenecks for the software application. Conduct complex maintenance procedures for software applications independently. Monitor and evaluate the performance of the software application by tracking and analyzing appropriate metrics. Perform maintenance (corrective, adaptive, perfective) engineering activities. Analyze application logs, maintenance activity data, and performance data and provide analysis. Evaluate change requests to identify those which are valid and feasible. Assist in the design of software solutions such that processes and applications work in tandem for specific components or modules of a product. Evaluate trade-offs while designing a component based on the business requirements. Assist in conversion of HLD (High Level Design) to create detailed software designs using mock screens, pseudo codes and detailed functional logic of the modules for specific modules or components of a product. Select appropriate frameworks, platforms, and environments for software coding and configuration and scripting.

Create and configure minimalistic code for entire product/system and ensure the product is meeting business requirements, non-functional requirements, low-maintainability, high-availability, and high-scalability needs. Arrange software engineering requirements in programming sequence by analyzing requirements. Drive creation of scripts for automation of repetitive and routine tasks in CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery), testing, or any other process across the domain. Translate customer requirements into test strategy. Select, introduce and implement various tools for testing. Identify scope and method of testing for each requirement. Ensure that the test cases cover all the test scenarios for the software product/solution requirements. Help with the execution of test cases to test the code and detect errors and defects for the entire product.
