- Migration seams: Create facades, wrappers, and anti-corruption layers around stored procedures to enable gradual extraction of business logic into services
- Refactor .NET Framework code supporting DPS workflows into maintainable, testable modules
- Implement strangler fig patterns to incrementally move logic from database service layer while maintaining production stability
- Build domain-aligned modules/services with clear contracts that enable the Domain & Services Squad to extract capabilities
- Establish patterns for dependency injection, observability, and error handling in established .NET codebases
- Implement performance baselines, regression detection, and alerting for data-intensive workflows
- Participate in incident response for data/performance-related production issues
- Create diagnostic tooling and runbooks to reduce time-to-resolution
