• Shape technology strategy and roadmap for the finance application landscape, bringing new tools and approaches into the mix where they add value.
• Partner with support and project teams on service improvements, deployments, and resolving technical issues.
• Build and maintain documentation and design-pattern knowledge so solutions are well-understood and easy to extend.
• Act as a driving force for innovation and best practice, both within your team and across the broader development community.
