The Full Stack Developer elaborates or adapts the detailed technical design and programming code (or package parameterization) in the context of a project or asset, according to enterprise standards, and considering required quality and performance levels.
The Full Stack Developer also performs the unit testing of the developed code and assists during implementation.
The developer will mainly take tasks related to development of web forms in React and the new backend framework behind them, based on a cloud solution (built on Spring Boot). But they will also help for tasks to maintain existing Java APIs, like the referential for employees, among other api-based applications for different business lines like Legal, Compliance or Communications.

Agile requirements
An "Agile mindset" which implies:
a positive attitude and pragmatism
thirst for knowledge: Agile is about learning and adapting. Knowledge sharing is key to success.
The goal of team success: Agile is about the success of the team, no individual success or heroic behavior. It is more important for the team to succeed than for the individual to have completed his/her tasks.
There is no failure, only feedback: Agile is about taking everything as lessons, adjusting actions based on the feedback, resulting in continuous improvement.
Beyond the roles: Agile teams are cross-functional. All required disciplines are represented in the team (analysis, development, testing, … ). However, although team members have a primary role representing a discipline, they are expected to take on other roles and contribute to other disciplines whenever it helps towards reaching the sprint goal.
