• Deploy, manage, and troubleshoot applications and microservices on Microsoft Azure.
• Work with Azure services and cloud-native technologies to build scalable and highly available applications.
• Contribute to application architecture, technical design, and engineering decisions for distributed systems.
• Identify and resolve complex issues related to application performance, scalability, reliability, and availability.
• Write clean, maintainable, reusable, and well-tested code following established engineering standards.
• Conduct code reviews and provide technical guidance to other developers.
• Develop unit, integration, and automated tests to ensure application quality and reliability.
• Collaborate with Product, QA, DevOps, Architecture, and other engineering teams to deliver high-quality solutions.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies including sprint planning, stand-ups, reviews, and retrospectives.
• Monitor application and service performance and proactively identify opportunities for optimization.
• Support production deployments, incident resolution, root-cause analysis, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Contribute to CI/CD pipelines and modern software development and deployment practices.
• Maintain technical documentation covering application architecture, APIs, integrations, and operational procedures.
• Stay updated with emerging technologies and recommend improvements to existing platforms and development practices.
