• Integrations: Connect to REST/GraphQL APIs and commerce platforms (WooCommerce, Shopify, BigCommerce), payments (e.g., Stripe), and tools like HubSpot/SendGrid.
• Performance: Optimize Core Web Vitals, code-splitting, image optimization, caching (CDN/Redis), and accessibility.
• UI Implementation: Deliver responsive interfaces using Tailwind CSS and component libraries (e.g., shadcn/ui) with strong attention to UX.
• Data & Analytics: Instrument events for GA4/Looker Studio and ensure decision-ready tracking.
• Security & Auth: Implement secure auth (NextAuth/JWT), follow OWASP best practices, and protect APIs.
• Quality: Write tests (Jest/RTL/Playwright), perform code reviews, and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions).
• DevOps: Deploy on Vercel and/or AWS (S3/CloudFront/Lambda), manage environment configs, and monitor with tools like Sentry.
• Collaboration: Partner with designers and PMs to scope, estimate, and deliver work on time.

• Core Stack: Strong TypeScript, modern React patterns, App Router, and Server Components.
• Styling: Tailwind CSS (or similar) and solid understanding of responsive design and accessibility.
• State/Data: Familiarity with TanStack Query/React Query and common state patterns (Context/Zustand/Redux).
• APIs & DB: Comfortable with API Routes, Node.js, and ORMs (e.g., Prisma) targeting Postgres/MySQL; Redis a plus.
• Headless CMS: Experience with WordPress/WooCommerce via REST or WPGraphQL is a plus.
• Performance & SEO: Proven ability to improve Lighthouse scores and technical SEO fundamentals.
• Process: Git/GitHub workflows, PR reviews, and CI/CD. Great communication and ownership mindset.
