Implement and adhere to Windows security best practices to ensure the security of the UI and related processes.
Ensure the quality and reliability of your code through rigorous unit testing, automation testing, static code analysis, code coverage, and end-to-end testing.
Integrate software analytics and telemetry to gain insights into the distribution and installation systems, enabling data-driven improvements.
Work within a Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) environment, utilizing tools like Jenkins pipelines to automate build, test, and deployment processes.
Embrace a developer testing mindset, taking ownership of code quality through thorough testing practices, including Test-Driven Development (TDD).
Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills, particularly in discussing UI/UX concepts.
Take initiative, manage your tasks effectively, and drive projects to successful completion.
