## Description

You solve difficult problems, applying appropriate technologies and best practices.

 - You work with your team to invent, design and build software that is stable and performant.

Your solutions are pragmatic.

 - You consider the legacy of the code you produce and write code that an SDE unfamiliar with the system can understand.
 - You limit the use of short-term workarounds.
You do things with the proper level of complexity the first time (or at least minimize incidental complexity).

 - You create flexible software without over-engineering.
You make appropriate trade-offs, re-use where possible, and are judicious about introducing dependencies.

 - You are efficient with resource usage (e.g., system hardware, database, memory/CPU, etc.)
 - You work on project ideas with customers, stakeholders, and peers
