· Apply prompt engineering best practices to improve accuracy, efficiency, and consistency of GenAI outputs.

· Lead by example in coding standards, testing practices, CI/CD, and DevOps automation.

· Troubleshoot complex technical issues and ensure timely, root-cause-oriented resolutions.

Agentic AI–Driven Engineering

· Design and guide the use of Agentic AI workflows for software development activities such as:

o Automated code reviews and refactoring

o Dependency analysis and impact assessment

o Regression detection and test automation

o Operational and observability insights

· Evaluate and recommend Agentic AI frameworks or approaches that improve developer productivity and software quality.

· Ensure Agentic AI solutions are secure, auditable, and aligned with enterprise governance standards.

Team Leadership & Mentoring

· Mentor and coach developers on modern application architecture, Python/.NET best practices, and AI-assisted development techniques.

· Support sprint planning, backlog grooming, and Agile ceremonies.

· Delegate tasks effectively while maintaining accountability for quality and delivery.

· Foster a collaborative, learning-oriented engineering culture with a strong focus on continuous improvement.

Project & Stakeholder Management

· Partner with product managers, architects, QA, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into technical solutions.

· Estimate development effort and support planning of timelines, milestones, and deliverables.

· Ensure projects are delivered on time, within scope, and in compliance with technical and quality standards.

· Communicate technical trade-offs and risks clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Quality, Security & Performance

· Enforce best practices in secure coding, scalability, performance optimization, and resilience.

· Drive adoption of automated testing, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, and observability practices.

· Ensure systems are reliable, maintainable, and production-ready, including AI-assisted components.
