• Provide monorepo migration support, migrating applicable consumers and workloads into the frontend monorepo (including JSF migrations) and resolving migration-related issues.
• Improve and automate code freshness, dependency updates, and other repetitive operational processes to continuously propagate dependency updates and reduce manual maintenance.
• Participate in the team's DFR rotation and assist with code review and incoming operational requests after ramp-up, meeting the team's five-day response expectation (QuAD).
• Contribute to and participate in architectural design decisions, developing technical approaches and evaluating solutions within areas of responsibility.

  • Experience with frontend platforms or shared libraries that serve as critical dependencies for other teams and product surfaces
  • Experience with platform migrations, particularly helping teams migrate consumers from one platform or framework to another
