RESPONSIBILITIES

Here is what you can expect on a typical day or your first month with the organization:

• We start the day with a "scrum daily meeting". This allows us to provide the support needed to drive your goals for the day and align them with the team's goals;
• It's time to code! You can start by coding the solution that has been analyzed previously, which can be in the form of a "PoC". Are you confident enough? Go ahead and write a transfer request that you will present to your manager;
• You are ready for the team meeting - today the focus is on the user stories in the backlog. We need your expertise to ensure that deadlines are realistic and expectations will be met;
• It's time to code! One of our APIs is underperforming. However, it was 6 months ago! With your colleague, you look at the nodejs logs, the "events" in Sentry and the "flags" in Snyk. You have put your finger on the problem! Now it's time to plan a solution, estimate and implement it;
• node.js LTS has been updated, you take the initiative to migrate it and do the regression tests;
• A major UX bug has been added to the "Sprint" and you are assigned to it! You need to focus your energy on solving this problem. Once resolved, you realize that this feature was not covered by an E2E Cypress test suite, so you add it to your "PR";
• Have new ideas on how to run scripts faster and more efficiently?
• Present your ideas to your team, they will love it! And they will be implemented in the next sprints;
• You go from creating the "User Story" in order to optimize it, to adding it to the "backlog";
• It's time to reflect on what has been accomplished during the last months; we organize a retro sprint where we focus on two things: improving and having fun!
• After an analysis with your colleagues, you propose the idea of doing SSG instead of SSR, after which the scope project is prioritized and implemented.
