• Conduct code reviews and support the growth of junior engineers through feedback and collaboration.
• As an individual contributor, act in a leadership role to ensure the team's technical direction and work item assignment meet standards of quality, clarity, and extensibility.

Qualifications:

• 5+ years of software development experience, with a strong focus on UI development.
• Expertise in React and modern web techniques with experience building dynamic, responsive, and accessible user interfaces.
• Strong understanding of frontend architecture, component-based design, and state management patterns.

• Familiarity with performance optimization, browser behavior, and frontend debugging techniques.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with experience working with cross-functional teams.
