You will stabilize existing systems, document critical workflows, eliminate manual processes, improve data capture and reporting, and build tools that save teams significant time. Strong judgment, ownership, and practical problem-solving are valued more than specialization in a particular technology stack.

You'll sit with the people doing the work, find what costs them the most hours, and fix it.
