• Be proactive in documenting your own implementations and technical decisions.

• Conduct regular code reviews with team members.

• Engage in the design process by proposing technologies and solutions for each product.

• Collaborate and work alongside project managers, designers, and other developers to create products that you can feel proud of.

• Support less experienced developers in the process, sharing knowledge and best practices.
