• Implement CI/CD (build, test, package, deploy), environment promotion (DEV TEST PROD), and release automation.
• Own performance & tuning (SQL Trace, Explain Plan, indexing, hints, bulk operations, caching) and query optimization.
• Create dynamic, interactive APEX reports (IR, IG, charts), authorization schemes, and robust security (RBAC, session/state protection, OAuth2/SSO).
• Debug complex issues across stack layers and remediate defects quickly in a fast-paced environment.
• Mentor teammates, lead reviews, and uphold best practices for code quality, observability, and security.
