• AWS Cloud Integration: Utilize your expertise in AWS cloud services to design, deploy, and manage cloud-based components of the routing scheduling service.
• Collaboration: Work closely with multi-functional teams, including software engineers, product managers, and data scientists, to gather requirements, provide technical insights, and drive project success.
• Code Quality: Maintain and improve the codebase by implementing standard methodologies, code reviews, and refactoring when necessary.
• Troubleshooting: Identify and resolve complex technical issues, ensuring the service's reliability and performance.
• Documentation: Build and maintain documentation for code, design, and processes.
• Mentoring: Share your expertise and mentor junior developers, fostering a culture of continuous learning and growth.
