Duties & Responsibilities
- K2 Application Architecture & Design • Workflow Modeling: Translate complex business process maps into functional K2 automated workflows, utilizing advanced rules, inline functions, and conditional routing logic. • Smart Forms Development: Design high-fidelity, responsive user interfaces using K2 Smart Forms, incorporating custom views, controls, validation rules, and expressions. • Smart Objects Integration: Create and configure reusable K2 Smart Objects to establish secure data handshakes between K2 applications and external databases or SaaS platforms. Integration & Core Engineering • API & System Integration: Connect K2 workflows with core enterprise ecosystems (e.g., SharePoint, SAP, Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics) via REST/SOAP Web Services and custom Service Brokers. • Database Programming: Write, optimize, and maintain underlying SQL Server database components, including stored procedures, views, and complex triggers tied to K2 processes. • Custom Code Extension: Author custom .NET/C# code snippets, custom assembly brokers, or custom Smart Forms controls to extend K2 platform capabilities when out-of- the-box features fall short. Maintenance, Administration & Optimization • Platform Administration: Troubleshoot failed workflow instances, manage server logs, configure environmental string fields, and handle package deployments using K2 Management and K2 Package & Deployment. • Performance Tuning: Audit and refactor inefficient Smart Object queries and deeply nested Smart Form rules to minimize server-side processing times and form load latches. • Technical Documentation: Create and update Technical Design Documents (TDD), environment migration playbooks, and structural data dictionaries for all custom K2 builds
Accountabilities
Workflow Reliability : Ensure all deployed K2 process instances execute with a high success rate, managing error loops and unexpected workflow stalls within internal SLAs.
Deployment Accuracy : Guarantee smooth, defect-free package migrations across Development, QA, and Production environments without disrupting active system processes.
Data and Security Compliance : Apply proper K2 environment role privileges and Active Directory / Entra ID permission policies to safeguard sensitive corporate transaction data. Sprint Commitment : Complete assigned configuration requests, form changes, and workflow integrations within established Agile project timelines.
Key Interfaces: Internal:
Business Analysts & Process Owners: Collaborating closely to analyze Process Definition Documents (PDD) and turn manual requirements into automated technical designs. Database Administrators (DBAs) & IT Infrastructure: Coordinating on SQL server access permissions, Active Directory organization groups, and core server configurations. Quality Assurance (QA) Teams: Resolving reported application bugs and supporting user acceptance testing (UAT) cycles with business consumers
External
