Guide architecture and design decisions for microfrontend systems, ensuring solutions align with strategic technical direction.
Lead and mentor engineers, promoting best practices around code quality, accessibility, and knowledge sharing.
Implement robust testing strategies across unit, component, and browser-based tests.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver features from design through deployment, including CI/CD pipeline configuration and release management.
Drive continuous improvement through experimentation, refactoring, and adoption of modern tooling — including AI coding assistants and agent-based workflows.
Ensure adherence to SDLC processes, CI/CD pipelines, and code governance tooling.
Support estimation, planning, and risk identification to enable predictable delivery.
Champion accessibility, performance optimisation, and web security best practices across the team.
