Going to work.
I work in a small team with Telecom NZ to build typically .NET based web applications to replace Access and Excel used internally by different business units within Telecom NZ.
I also develop and support a number of Excel macros and .NET desktop applications that interface with a terminal client to automate processes that transact against a terminal based application running within said client.
So my daily job typically involves building applications from end-to-end – from design to test to implementation and deployment, and to on-going support. I am typically involved in every step of application development.
I design solutions. I estimate the time and cost involved. I build and test the application. I deploy and handle the change requests and the manage incidents raised concerning faults with the applications I support.
Not all incidences are faults!
I also help steer my team towards best practices of development and selecting technologies that help us deliver better products for our customers. In addition to this I also find tools and utilities to help me and my team mates to be more productive. I either find something useful already fit for purpose, or write my tools or helpers to make life just that little bit easier.
It is a job I love and I cannot imagine doing anything else.
