  1. Executes standard software solutions, design, development, and technical troubleshooting
  2. Writes secure and high-quality code using the syntax of at least one programming language with limited guidance
  3. Designs, develops, codes, and troubleshoots with consideration of upstream and downstream systems and technical implications
  4. Applies knowledge of tools within the Software Development Life Cycle toolchain to improve the value realized by automation
  5. Drives team adoption of enterprise-authorized AI-assisted engineering practices within the work environment to improve code quality, delivery speed, and operational outcomes (e.g., AI-assisted code review/refactoring, test strategy acceleration, incident/root-cause analysis support), while establishing consistent validation standards (secure coding, peer review, automated testing) and promoting reuse of effective patterns across the team
