·       Improve the stability and performance of the backend services, and increase visibility into the health of the system by improving our logging, alerting, and process around recovering from problems
·       Write code that has been tested well enough before shipping so that we do not cause a noticeable increase in the number of support issues filed over time
·       When critical bugs are shipped to production, proactively identify root causes and take the appropriate resolution actions so that we can recover quickly

·       Provide helpful code reviews and ensure PRs do not linger with long delays in review time
·       Devise innovative and cost-effective strategies for identifying and preventing bugs
·       Proactively refactor code that needs improvement, but without getting lost in constantly refactoring projects
·       Build a secure application architecture and work with other teams to build a secure information architecture
·       Become a reliable go-to resource on the team for feature changes and updates as new projects arise, such that you can be relied on to ship the changes in a timely manner at the quality level expected by the team
