2) Making it easy - maybe even fun - for our residential customers and SunRun's own operations team to oversee how our solar systems are performing. Why?

o Review and re-factor in-house developed JDBC wrapper framework.
o Investigate opportunities for using second level caching solution to take load off the database.
• Peer review of database access code in current and future development projects.
• Contribute to key architectural decisions that directly impact the scalability of the SunRun applications.
• Collaborate with other developers to design complete solutions for new features and application components.
• Think innovatively to help shape our agile software development processes and practices.
• Research and recommend new and emerging technologies that are not only exciting but will also enhance our customers’ user experience and improve the productivity of the team or scalability of the applications.
