Build and maintain internal tools that support reporting, analytics, and operational workflows across the organization.
Develop and maintain customer-facing web applications and websites.
Partner with stakeholders to gather requirements, clarify success criteria, and turn requests into well-scoped technical tasks.
Translate business processes into simple, scalable solutions (e.g., forms, dashboards, approvals, and automation).
Leverage AI-assisted development tools to prototype, implement, test, and iterate quickly, while keeping the code clean and reliable.
Contribute to both frontend and backend development, with a slight emphasis on frontend work.
Assist with database design and data modeling as needed based on project requirements.
Work with modern frameworks and cloud platforms to deploy and maintain applications.
Participate in code reviews, testing, and documentation to ensure the code is solid and maintainable.
Help improve development practices as the engineering function grows.
