Debug and resolve issues across development, test, and production environments, acting as the primary on-call escalation point. Ensure solutions are secure, scalable, performant, and aligned with platform and architectural standards. AI-Driven Engineering Practices Leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g., code generation, refactoring, test creation, documentation, and debugging prompts) to improve engineering velocity and quality. Define and promote best practices for prompt engineering, validation of AI-generated outputs, and safe usage of AI within SDLC. Use AI to support code reviews, technical analysis, performance optimization, and incident investigation—while ensuring human accountability and quality control. Explore and champion opportunities to integrate AI into frontend workflows, automation, and developer experience initiatives. Quality, Standards & Best Practices Enforce clean, maintainable, reusable, and well-tested code aligned with engineering standards. Promote secure coding practices, vulnerability management, and performance optimization. Champion CI/CD best practices, automation, and continuous improvement across the team. Ensure observability through effective logging, monitoring, and alerting. Team Leadership & Collaboration Set and communicate clear technical and delivery goals aligned with business strategy. Manage story lifecycles, dependencies, and priorities in collaboration with Product, QA, and other Tech Leads. Mentor and develop engineers, fostering a high-performance, learning-focused team culture. Lead team ceremonies, technical workshops, and knowledge-sharing sessions. Contribute to hiring, onboarding, and technical assessment of new team members. Qualifications Core Technical Skills Strong hands-on experience with Angular and modern frontend development practices.
