• Performance & Reliability: Profile and resolve UI and performance issues related to real-time features such as live scores, loyalty programs, and in-venue commerce.
• Design applications for graceful degradation and reliability in challenging environments, including inconsistent venue Wi‑Fi.
• Product & Client Fluency: Identify technical risks during sprint planning and comfortably explain technical decisions directly to clients.
• Help shape the structure and technical direction of a growing front-end engineering team.
