• Reviewing others contributions through pull requests and code walkthroughs

• Writing high level technical descriptions of proposed changes

• Use AI coding tools effectively, taking full ownership of the output. Understand the strengths and weaknesses of frontier models and coding harnesses and how to use them to optimise productivity for the team as a whole.
