• Drive frontend modernization efforts, including framework upgrades, legacy isolation, and improvements to developer velocity
• Contribute meaningfully across the stack when needed, especially where frontend architecture intersects with backend systems, data models, and infrastructure
• Design systems with a strong understanding of distributed architectures, failure modes, and long-term maintainability
