Responsibilities

• Lead architecture and development of a scalable, reusable component library and design system (theming, tokens, shared components).
• Implement persona-based UX patterns such as role-based navigation, progressive disclosure, and workflow-driven UI.
• Build and optimize responsive web applications using modern JavaScript/TypeScript best practices.
• Establish standards for UI performance optimization, WCAG accessibility compliance, and operability best practices.
