ensuring issues are identified and resolved efficiently.

Participate in incident triage, problem management, release and change support, and production issue resolution across the full stack.

Identify and clearly communicate technical risks, dependencies, and trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Participate actively in agile ceremonies, including stand-ups, planning, refinement, retrospectives, and demos.

Contribute to technical documentation, implementation guides, support runbooks, onboarding materials, and operational procedures.

Participate in code reviews, peer collaboration, and engineering practice uplift, helping to strengthen the overall maturity of the Platform Team.

Work with security, risk, and governance stakeholders to ensure solutions align with enterprise standards, compliance obligations, and secure engineering principles.

Support continuous improvement by identifying opportunities to simplify architecture, reduce technical debt, improve reliability, and accelerate delivery.

Troubleshoot issues across the user interface, APIs, services, integrations, data access layers, environments, and deployment pipelines.

Build robust working relationships with internal stakeholders and delivery teams to ensure platform solutions are practical, adoptable, and well supported.

Contribute to estimation, planning, and prioritisation activities, helping the team deliver valuable outcomes in a sustainable way.
