- Analyze and resolve complex code issues, optimize performance, and write clean, maintainable code.
- Define and apply advanced software testing standards and conduct comprehensive testing activities.

- Lead medium‑scale development initiatives within the team.
- Support onboarding of new engineers and contribute to knowledge‑sharing activities.
