I always begin by understanding the requirements and acceptance criteria clearly. Then, I like to brainstorm solutions, considering best practices to ensure scalability and maintainability. Collaboration with my team is crucial as it allows us to leverage diverse insights to refine our approach.

I have a solid background in ASP.NET Core, where I've developed several web applications focusing on performance optimization and security. My approach often includes using built-in features like dependency injection and middleware to craft responsive and efficient applications.

I have worked extensively with microservices architectures, designing decoupled systems that can scale independently. My focus has been on ensuring robust communication between services, implementing APIs, and using containerization technologies like Docker for deployment.

High code quality is crucial and I ensure it through continuous code reviews, adhering to established coding standards, and utilizing unit testing frameworks to automate tests as much as possible. I also advocate for pair programming when appropriate to strengthen collaboration and knowledge sharing.

I actively participate in tech communities, attend webinars, and follow industry leaders on social media to stay informed. Additionally, I regularly engage in hands-on projects that allow me to explore new technologies and apply them practically.

One challenge was optimizing application performance under high load. I conducted a thorough analysis using performance profiling tools, identified bottlenecks, and refactored the code. By breaking down monolithic functions into smaller, modular pieces, I improved response times significantly.

I believe in open communication and encourage team discussions where all viewpoints can be shared. It's essential to focus on the problem rather than personal opinions. If needed, I’m open to involving third parties or leads to mediate and find a resolution.

I prefer using Git for version control due to its branch management features which facilitate collaboration among team members. It's adaptable to various workflow models and allows easy tracking of changes, which is vital in an Agile environment.

I have hands-on experience with cloud providers like AWS and Azure, where I deployed applications, utilized cloud databases, and configured services to enhance scalability and resilience. I also leverage cloud-native resources to streamline development processes.

I prioritize tasks based on urgency and impact on the sprint goals, while also considering the feedback and contributions from teammates. I believe in maintaining flexibility to adapt during sprint planning meetings, ensuring alignment with overall project milestones.
