• Lead configuration and customization guidance : scoped app strategy, scripting standards (JavaScript), update set management, source control, CI / CD pipelines and release management.
• Establish platform governance, development standards, coding conventions, and testing / QA processes.
• Collaborate with product owners, service teams and senior stakeholders to prioritise requirements, run workshops, and translate outcomes into solutions.
