Understand User Requirements

• Works withappropriate stakeholders(e.g., project manager, technical lead) todetermineuser requirements for a set of features. Begins toleveragea variety of feedback channels to incorporate insights into future designs or solution fixes. Incorporatesappropriate continuousfeedback loops measuring customer value, usage patterns, and other actionable metrics of value.

• Contributes toprocesses for the architecture of a product/solution feature and helps to create proposals for architecture by testing design hypotheses and helping to refine code plans, with technical leadership from others. Provides initial reactions and input to architects. Begins to own solutions forarchitecting ofsolutions, following technical leadership as applicable.Contributes tothe development of design documents for designs or User Stories withoversight, anddeterminesthe technology that will beleveragedandhowit will interact. Escalates and shares findings from investigations with the team and owns some design decisions. Helps toassuresystem architecture meets security and compliance requirements and expectations.
• Creates a clear and articulated plan for testing and assuring quality of solutions, and defines success for outcomes of tests (e.g., unit tests). Adds new tests, removes antiquated tests, and aggregates tests to improve tests in the feature area. Helps to drive efforts for augmenting test cases and ensures that the solution area has good test coverage. Helps to integrate automation features when planning for testing.
• Contributes to the identification of dependencies, and the development of design documents for a product area with little oversight. Helps toidentifyother teams and technologies that will beleveraged, how they will interact, and when one's system may provide support to others.
