• Apply UX and UI best practices and design thinking in the front end, including layout, interaction patterns, and usability, and collaborate with designers on implementation details.
• Implement and extend components within the current Bootstrap and Material environment and the enterprise design system as it rolls out.
• Code to WCAG 2.1 AA and remediate accessibility issues, testing with assistive technologies such as JAWS and automated tools such as axe.
• Design, build, and maintain backend services and APIs, with supporting middleware and SQL Server work as needed.
