- Lead frontend engineering projects within our B2B product "Educator Tool", from conception to completion.
- Set the bar for best practices in code health, testing, accessibility, and maintainability, and drive their adoption across the team.

- A testing and quality mindset, with experience in component testing strategies and building maintainable test suites.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.
- Strong sense of ownership, driving topics end-to-end and mentoring others along the way.
