  • Proven success leading client-facing engagements, with the ability to translate UX and business goals into technical plans and articulate trade-offs in real time
  • Demonstrated capabilities delivering resilient, high-performing frontend experiences integrated with MACH services (CMS, search, personalization engines, CDP/CRM, DAM)
  • Strong command of responsive design, accessibility, SEO, analytics tagging, and A/B testing enablement
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, CircleCI)
  • Familiarity with automated testing (Jest, Playwright/Cypress) and performance optimization tools (Lighthouse, WebPageTest)

Nice to have
