Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
As a Software Engineer, my role involves contributing to the development, maintenance, and improvement of software systems used by the organisation. On a daily basis, I work across various stages of the development lifecycle — from understanding requirements and designing solutions to writing, testing, and deploying code.
I collaborate with other engineers and teams to solve technical problems, ensure code quality through reviews, and help deliver reliable, efficient software that meets user needs. I also stay involved in team discussions and agile workflows to continuously improve processes and outcomes.
