- Design and optimize DynamoDB schemas, partition strategies, indexes, and query patterns.
- Establish development standards and reusable architecture patterns and conduct critical code and design reviews.
- Troubleshoot complex application, integration, deployment, performance, and production issues.
- Partner with DevOps teams on CI/CD, infrastructure as code, environment promotion, monitoring, logging, rollback, and release readiness.
- Drive performance optimization across Lambda workloads and cloud infrastructure.
- Communicate architecture decisions, trade-offs, risks, and delivery impacts to senior business and technology stakeholders.
- Produce technical documentation covering architecture decisions, APIs, integrations, and operational procedures.
- Mentor developers on AWS architecture and Node.js engineering best practices.
- Leverage modern AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot and Claude Code to improve SDLC productivity and engineering efficiency.
