Apply secure software development practices, including vulnerability scanning, secrets management, access controls, and dependency management.
Support integrations with external systems, APIs, databases, and enterprise applications.
Collaborate with engineering and product stakeholders to deliver reliable, production-ready solutions in an iterative development environment.
