- clarifying clients’ needs and goals,
- examining the documents provided by clients,
- decomposing tasks into features,
- estimating workload, and
- identifying project risks.
- Design (60% of the time)
- examining client’s docs and artifacts
- identifying business requirements,
- taking part in UI/UX design,
- designing the solution in terms of an API and technical requirements, and
- finalizing the implementation with the client.
- Development (20% of the time)
- analytical support for teams,
- keeping track of arrangements with the backend team, and
- keeping the documents up to date.
- Upgrade (10% of the time)
- expanding the backlog, and
- prioritizing the tasks.
- Support (5% of the time)
