Your team member keeps brushing off code review feedback. How do you tactfully address this recurring issue?
While it’s important to have a great Code Review culture, the process itself should never be up for debate. Both Github and Gitlab provide great configurations for branch protection, code ownership, etc. If you make your org own their code, and enable them to take decisions one what gets and doesn’t get merged, then this will never be a problem.

Here's how you can meet tight deadlines as a software developer.
Having a tight deadline is not a free pass to commit terrible code without consequences. If there’s a tradeoff between tech debt and delivery, delivery comes first, but tech debt should be addressed immediately after the deadline is met. Otherwise the codebase will very easily become unmanageable in months time.

Here's how you can meet tight deadlines as a software developer.
Coding is the process that takes less time for a software engineer. Fully understanding the scope of the problem, and designing the solution is the hard part. A dev who waits 24 hours until next standup to get guidance on a Product decision will take a day longer than the dev who directly communicates with the PM and designer right after a blocker comes up.

Here's how you can meet tight deadlines as a software developer.
I don’t remember a single time that my team didn’t meet a deadline due to adding automated tests. However, I clearly remember the times we failed to deliver something on time due to bugs found during manual regression testing. And bugs introduced while trying to fix the original issue. For greenfield development TDD is a great way to move forward, whenever possible. Having a healthy CI/CD pipeline can save so much trouble and time down the road. The less scope a reviewer needs to handle during CRs, the better. And a good CI/CD pipeline can automatically review test results, formatting and style, and overall enforce codebase health.
