- Own front-end design decisions, including state management, application structure, and API integration strategy.
- Turn design mockups into responsive, accessible, high-quality interfaces.
- Design, develop, and maintain backend REST services using Java and Spring Boot.
- Work with relational databases, including writing and optimizing queries and designing data models.
- Drive front-end performance, security, accessibility, and reliability improvements.
- Write and promote strong automated testing practices across front-end and backend code.
- Lead code reviews, contribute to technical design discussions, and raise engineering standards.
- Mentor junior and mid-level developers and support their growth.
- Take ownership of features and modules from design through release and production support.
- Diagnose and resolve complex issues across the front end and backend.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams in an Agile environment and help with estimation and planning.
