  • Collaborate with mobile, frontend, and DevOps teams to align service architecture, deployments, and API contracts.
  • Use AI-enhanced tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Codium, Cursor) for boilerplate generation, test case creation, and speeding up development cycles.
  • Participate in architectural planning, code reviews, and sprint cycles with a focus on performance, maintainability, and clean code.
  • Help migrate services from existing Node.js monoliths to GoLang-based modular systems.
