• Collaborate with cross-functional teams using modern software development practices and tools in a collaborative, iterative development environment.
• Create project documentation, process flows, technical documentation, user guides, and implementation plans to support successful solution delivery.
• Assist in planning project activities, developing timelines, tracking progress, identifying risks, and communicating project status under the guidance of experienced team members.
• Perform solution testing, validation, troubleshooting, and deployment activities to ensure automation solutions meet business and technical requirements.
• Present project updates, demonstrations, and final solutions to business stakeholders and technical leadership.
• Continuously identify opportunities to improve business processes, development practices, and automation methodologies while learning emerging technologies and industry best practices.
