The role includes designing end-to-end solutions on AWS or Azure, defining and reviewing microservices architecture, conducting code reviews, working closely with the Product Owner on requirements and priorities, resolving client issues within agreed SLAs, and contributing to CI/CD pipelines, Docker/Kubernetes deployments, and infrastructure as code.
