Collaborate end‑to‑end with the frontend team (React.js) to deliver seamless customer experiences
Mentor interns or junior engineers and help shape team practices and tech direction
Build responsive, high-performance web applications using React.js / Next.js and modern UI frameworks (Tailwind, shadcn/ui).
