  • Work closely with the Product Manager to determine both what features are feasible and what resources in terms o! f time, money, and manpower said features will take to get done.

  • Design new features, maintain existing functionality, and execute a whoop-ass product using a boatload of different technologies.  Be excited to try new techniques and tech but also recognize the value of the tried-and-true.

  • Respond to bug reports with speed, and test your fixes.  For that matter, test everything else too.

  • Communicate your designs to the other team members in a way that everyone understands and will minimize back-and-forth.

  • Collaborate with and rely on the xperience and knowledge of the Software Architects, but don't follow blindly.  If you disagree, speak up - Discussion never hurt anyone.

  • Respect the best practices and standards of both the industry and the company.

  • Write robust automated tests.

  • Own your work - when you screw up, admit it, fix it, and learn from the experience.
