• Provide technical guidance, code reviews, and standard processes to the team members to ensure high-quality work you're doing.

• Support customers and internal stakeholders by solving issues, resolving queries, and providing effective solutions.

• Cultivate a culture of innovation, independent thinking, and proactive problem-solving within the team.
