  • Mentor and support other engineers — role-modeling engineering excellence, sharing feedback, and helping build a culture of technical growth.
  • Shape user experiences by exploring product ideas, testing technical possibilities, and building solutions that meet the needs of large-scale organisations.
  • Help teams navigate ambiguity — identifying trade-offs, guiding technical direction, and bringing clarity when the product scope is evolving.
