A very basic example of a software developer position would look like…
- Researching, designing, implementing and managing software programs
- Testing and evaluating new programs
- Identifying areas for modification in existing programs and subsequently developing these modifications
- Writing and implementing efficient code
- Determining operational practicality
- Developing quality assurance procedures
- Deploying software tools, processes and metrics
- Maintaining and upgrading existing systems
- Training users
- Working closely with other developers, UX designers, business and systems analysts
This would be different per role and language the job posting is for but these are the basic responsibilities of a developer. The biggest difference from this and a web developer is creating a software that is distributed as opposed to a website that is created via markup languages.
