Automate our infrastructure - you believe in Infrastructure As Code and detest manual tasks. Success is measured by your ability to spin up environments on demand. Build observability into our environment and applications that help us monitor and self-heal when problems come up. Make the right trade-off between reliability and product feature speed - come up with metrics that define the tradeoff, get buy-in from stakeholders and measure against those. Automate code deployments so that we can release daily and often multiple times a day. Active involvement and mentorship of junior engineers doing code reviews resulting in up leveling the skill set for the entire team.

Produces a work output by taking a complex user story, breaking it down into sub-tasks, and completing the sub-tasks with relative ease - own design, coding, testing all the way through deployment of each of those sub-tasks. Identifies and proactively tackles technical debt before it grows into something that requires significant up-front work to resolve. A rule of thumb is to start looking into root cause of issues whenever there is noise. There is no smoke without fire. Strike the right balance between fixing the problem at hand and focusing on finding the root cause of problem. For example, if it’s a production issue the priority is to fix the immediate problem and collect all the data necessary for root cause analysis. In a non-production environment, the focus should be on finding the root cause and fixing it the right way to make sure the problem doesn’t occur again.
