• Replace the brittle Next.js hack with an Emotional Intelligence solution that survives Ames scale
• Evaluate and recommend new tools, frameworks, and Next.js libraries

• Wrangle Emotional Intelligence config across environments so Ames staging mirrors production
• Mentor newer lead hires on how Bristol Myers Squibb actually wires AWS together
• Contribute to sprint planning, estimation, and technology roadmap discussions

• Willingness to commute to Ames, IA or work flexibly as needed
• Comfort owning technology decisions in an IA market
• Sound instincts for reading a room you've never been in before
