• Design API specifications and implementation to extend integration with other services and decentralised apps
  
• Write clean, readable, performant, secure, and documented code that can be easily understood and leveraged by others. Do code reviews regularly to maintain high code quality, while also iterating quickly.
  
• Perform QA on your own work, write automated tests, and optimise your code.
