  • Design, build, and ship full-stack features

  • Develop modern, responsive UIs

  • Build APIs and services on AWS serverless architecture

Technical Leadership & Delivery (~30–40%)

  • Ensure alignment to engineering standards

  • Balance speed, scalability, and maintainability

Innovation & Experimentation

  • Leverage feature flags for safe experimentation

  • Encourage rapid prototyping

  • Manage technical debt proactively
