You will collaborate with cross functional partners such as designers and product managers. You will coach others on producing high quality code, using processes such as code review as a teaching mechanism. You can balance constraints, limiting the use of short-term workarounds and use common UI design patterns to decrease friction between the customer and software. You ensure the software you produce can be maintained and extended by those not familiar with the code by writing clear documentation and making good design choices. You train new team members on how your software is constructed, how it operates, and how it fits into the bigger picture.
