Build Activities (70% of Capacity): Deliver complete project solutions (code + tests + documentation) aligned to specifications and quality standards. Participate actively in roadmap elaboration, effort estimation, and sprint planning. Mentor junior and intermediate developers; bring the team toward technical excellence and autonomy.
