- End-to-End Delivery: Independently manage automation initiatives from requirements analysis through production release and post-deployment support.
- Documentation: Author process flows, Process Design Documents (PDDs), Solution Design Documents (SDDs), technical specifications, and general solution documentation.
- Reusable Frameworks: Construct modular, reusable automation components, frameworks, libraries, and custom activities to ensure consistency and speed across developments.
- Integrations & Cloud Architecture: Build integrations using REST APIs, web services, databases, message queues, and enterprise applications. Utilize cloud capabilities across Azure Functions, Logic Apps, Azure DevOps, Key Vault, and related Microsoft cloud services.
- Custom Software Engineering: Develop supporting services and custom components using C#/.NET, Python, JavaScript, and related technologies.
- Advanced UiPath Ecosystem: Leverage specialized UiPath features including UiPath Apps, Action Centre, Document Understanding, OCR, AI/ML, and Integration Service.
- DevOps & Release Management: Implement CI/CD pipelines, source control, automated deployments, and release-management best practices.
- Quality Assurance & Code Review: Conduct peer code reviews, maintain strict compliance with coding and security standards, and lead end-to-end testing across UI, API, integration, regression, and automated test scenarios.
- Operational Maintenance & Monitoring: Implement robust logging, exception handling, monitoring, alerting, and operational reporting. Manage production defects, hot fixes, change requests, enhancements, and performance optimizations.
- Governance & SDLC Compliance: Ensure complete alignment with SDLC protocols, IT Change Management guidelines, security policies, and release management standards.
- Automation Platforms: Hands-on expertise with UiPath and Power Platform.
- UiPath Suite: Direct working experience with UiPath Apps, Action Centre, Document Understanding, OCR, AI/ML tools, and Integration Service.
- Programming Languages: Proficiency in C#/.NET, Python, and JavaScript for building custom services and components.
- Microsoft Cloud Services: Hands-on experience with Azure Functions, Logic Apps, Azure DevOps, and Key Vault.
- API & System Integrations: Experience developing and consuming REST APIs, web services, relational databases, and message queues.
- DevOps Practices: Practical knowledge of CI/CD pipeline setup, version control, automated build/deployment processes, and release governance.
- Testing Methodologies: Proven background leading end-to-end testing across UI, API, integration, and regression testing scenarios.
- UiPath Certification: Must hold an active UiPath Advanced Developer / UiARD certification.
- Independent Ownership: Demonstrated ability to manage projects independently from requirement definition to post-production support.
- Architectural Vision: Capacity to design solutions that remain scalable, resilient, secure, and maintainable.
- Collaborative Communication: Strong cross-functional collaboration skills to work seamlessly alongside business stakeholders, architects, developers, and support teams.
- Governance Focus: Discipline to enforce code quality, peer reviews, security guidelines, and strict change management compliance.
