• Facilitate discussions with engineers to address on-the-ground technical challenges and drive effective problem-solving.
• Define and lead the execution of the development roadmap, balancing feature development, technical debt reduction, and long-term technical investment.
• Remove obstacles for the development team, create an environment where engineers can focus on development, and maximize overall team performance.
• Develop team members through on-the-job training, 1-on-1 meetings, and regular retrospectives.
