* Contribute to modernisation efforts, including improving or replacing existing systems
* Apply established standards, patterns, and guardrails across all implementations
* Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimise systems to maintain reliability and performance
* Collaborate with stakeholders to understand requirements and implement aligned solutions
* Document systems, workflows, and implementation details to support scalability and maintainability
