  • Investigating and resolving application and integration issues.
  • Developing and executing unit tests.
  • Supporting application deployments across multiple environments.
  • Producing technical documentation, implementation guidance and handover artefacts.
  • Contributing to technical and security documentation.
  • Working collaboratively with architects, developers, testers, product specialists and other project stakeholders.
  • Providing technical leadership, mentoring and knowledge transfer to other team members.
  • Contributing to agile workload planning, prioritisation and iterative delivery.
