Describe your process for setting development tasks (API, databases, integrations).

The process of setting development tasks usually includes several key stages:

1. Requirements analysis: Gathering and clarifying requirements from the customer or business analyst. Defining goals and expected results.

2. Task decomposition: Breaking down a large task into smaller, specific sub-tasks for API, database, and integrations.

3. Defining technical requirements: For API — describing endpoints, methods, data formats, authentication. For the database — table structure, relationships, indexes. For integrations — protocols, exchange formats, update frequency.

4. Documentation: Creating technical specifications or user stories with acceptance criteria.

5. Estimation and planning: Estimating effort, setting priorities and deadlines.

6. Team discussion: Clarifying details, identifying risks and possible constraints.

7. Task handover to developers: Including all necessary materials and contacts for clarifications.

This approach helps ensure clarity, transparency, and control at all stages of development.
