- Participate actively in code reviews:
- Incorporate feedback into your own work
- Ask clarifying questions to deepen your understanding of best practices
- Document your work clearly (comments, simple API docs, and basic wiki pages) so others can understand how your code works and how to use it
- Follow established architectural patterns and guidelines when implementing features, asking for help when requirements or designs are unclear
- Use existing client-side component libraries and patterns, and help identify opportunities to reuse rather than rewrite components
- Seek mentorship from more experienced engineers, being open to feedback and coaching
- Ask questions early and often to unblock yourself and ensure you’re building the right thing

- Break down your work into manageable steps with help from more senior engineers when needed
- Communicate clearly about your progress and blockers so the team can help you stay on track with sprint commitments
- Write tests and follow team quality practices (linting, code style, basic automated testing) to keep defects low
- Balance the desire to move quickly with the need to produce reliable, maintainable code, deferring to senior guidance when tradeoffs are unclear
- Bring forward ideas for small improvements to the user experience, performance, or developer workflow
- Participate in experiments, spikes, and proof-of-concepts led by more experienced engineers, helping to implement and evaluate new approaches
- Suggest documentation or tooling improvements when you notice friction in your day-to-day work
- Take initiative in small ways—such as cleaning up code you touch, improving comments, or updating a wiki page—without waiting to be asked
