Implement automated unit tests with strong coverage and follow Test Driven Development (TDD) practices.

Apply software craftsmanship practices: pair programming, TDD, clean code, and documentation discipline.

Contribute to CI/CD pipeline maintenance and support automation of deployment and testing processes.

Identify and log technical debt items in the backlog; contribute to debt reduction under Tech Lead guidance.

Run Activities (30% of Capacity):

Serve as a Level 3 support contributor — analyse and resolve production bugs and incidents within agreed SLAs.

Perform corrective maintenance: investigate incidents, apply fixes, run unit tests, and deliver updated documentation.

Handle minor change requests through the full cycle: analysis → specification → development → UAT support → delivery.

Build Activities (70% of Capacity):

Deliver project features (code + tests + docs) aligned to technical specifications and quality benchmarks.

Participate in sprint planning, effort estimations, backlog refinement, and PI Planning ceremonies.

Draft clear technical documentation for features developed, keeping the knowledge base current.

Collaborate with Tech Lead, Product Owner, System Architect, and QA to ensure high-quality, on-time delivery.
