Independently applies AI tools and practices across the software development lifecycle (SDLC) in a disciplined and accountable manner, taking ownership of AI‑generated requirements, designs, code, and other assets while helping teammates do the same
Uses engineering health metrics and frameworks (e.g., Accelerate, SPACE, ESSP) to continuously improve processes, particularly those involving AI
Leads by example in producing secure, extensible, maintainable, and well‑tested code, applies modern coding patterns (including GenAI‑assisted approaches), and drives timely, high‑quality code reviews that consider diagnosability, reliability, testability, performance, and compliance
Owns and drives solution design and architecture for complex products or subsystems, evaluating multiple design options and clearly articulating trade‑offs
Creates clear, comprehensive test strategies that prevent regressions, incorporate security testing, and improve test reliability, speed, and coverage, leveraging AI tools for test automation where appropriate
