The Software Developer II position takes on tasks of increasing complexity, scope, and importance.  They are capable of owning small to medium features from design to release.  They set measurable goals and meet them.  When given a task with unclear requirements they know how to ask for clarification, and ensure that all assumptions are vetted before work starts in order to reduce the need for re-work.  Tasks are completed in a way that is considered, by the team, to be very high-quality with a lessening need for oversight from senior developers or management.  They will make mistakes, but should be improving the speed at which they learn from these mistakes.  They are responsible for on call support even for areas that they are not always familiar with.  They also perform code review and help mentor new hires.
