Day to DayWe operate in an agile Scrum environment with standard agile ceremonies. A typical day in this role involves a combination of Agile collaboration, production support, and action request fulfillment. The developer starts the day by attending Agile ceremonies such as daily stand-ups. Developers discuss ongoing production issues, action items, and coordinate with the team on priorities. Daily, we implement action requests which may include enhancements or configuration changes which are accomplished by analyzing both front-end and back-end code. We work with Spring MVC and JSP to understand UI behavior and use jQuery to troubleshoot or enhance client-side interactions. On the server side, we dive into Spring Data JPA and Hibernate to investigate data access logic and ensure smooth integration with the database. In the context of production support, we monitor logs, diagnose issues, and deploy fixes using tools like Jenkins, Git, and Splunk. Ability to navigate the full stack allows us to quickly identify root causes and implement effective solutions. We also document findings and collaborate with QA and DevOps to maintain system stability and improve future releases.The TeamThe eServices portal group has three Scrum development teams of about 6 people each. We are currently working on Spring upgrades in addition to some user-facing enhancements. The culture is collaborative, positive, and team-oriented.InterviewsRemote
