• Implement lazy loading, code splitting, image optimization, and bundle optimization techniques.
• Implement structured data (JSON‑LD), meta tags, canonical URLs, robots.txt, and sitemap.xml for SEO and AI crawler readiness.
• Manage resource sequencing and script loading strategies to maximize page load performance.
• Use Lighthouse and Web Vitals tooling to continuously monitor and improve frontend performance.
• Manage SFCC cartridge deployments across sandbox, staging, UAT, and production environments using sfcc-ci CLI and WebDAV-based workflows.
• Configure and maintain build pipelines for SFRA and PWA Kit using npm/pnpm scripts, Webpack, and SFCC‑specific build tooling.
• Set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines for frontend applications using tools such as GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or Bitbucket Pipelines.
• Manage environment‑specific configurations using SFCC Site Preferences, custom site preferences, and environment variable strategies in PWA Kit Managed Runtime.
• Deploy and manage PWA Kit applications on Salesforce Managed Runtime including bundle pushes and environment promotion.
• Configure SFCC CDN caching strategies, cache invalidation, and page‑level cache headers.
• Troubleshoot build failures, deployment issues, storefront bugs, and production incidents within the SFCC platform.
• Ensure code quality through structured code reviews, ESLint/Prettier enforcement, and SFCC cartridge best practices.
• Write clean, maintainable, well‑documented code following SFRA cartridge hierarchy and PWA Kit extensibility patterns.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies including sprint planning, daily stand‑ups, backlog grooming, demos, and retrospectives.
• Collaborate with backend, QA, and platform teams for end-to-end feature delivery on the SFCC platform.
