Champion responsive design, usability, and performance.
Design and integrate REST APIs, services, databases, and enterprise integrations across the full application stack.
Define clear API contracts, data structures, error-handling patterns, authentication and authorization approaches, and observability requirements.
Lead architecture reviews, design reviews, code reviews, technical problem solving, and root-cause analysis.
Promote automated unit, integration, API, UI, accessibility, and end-to-end testing within CI/CD pipelines.
Mentor engineers, strengthen front-end and full stack capabilities, and establish practical reference patterns the team can reuse.
Identify and reduce technical debt while balancing delivery commitments, platform standards, security requirements, and long-term maintainability.

Requirements

Approximately 8 or more years of software engineering experience, including significant full stack application development.
At least 3 years of experience providing technical leadership for application teams or major engineering initiatives.
Deep hands-on experience with a modern front-end framework, preferably React and TypeScript.
Strong knowledge of JavaScript, HTML, CSS, browser architecture, responsive design, and performance optimization.
Experience creating or extending reusable component libraries and enterprise design systems.
Demonstrated understanding of UX principles, interaction design, information architecture, usability, and accessible design.
Strong experience designing, documenting, securing, and consuming RESTful APIs.
Back-end development experience with Java and Spring Boot, Node.js, or comparable enterprise frameworks.
Experience with relational databases, Git-based development, automated testing, and CI/CD.
Strong understanding of secure coding, authentication, authorization, session management, API security, and application logging.
Demonstrated ability to lead technical design discussions, communicate trade-offs, and mentor engineers.
Hands-on technical credibility across UI, services, APIs, data, testing, security, and production support.
Ability to simplify complex user and business workflows without compromising control, security, or maintainability.
