• Build responsive, accessible, and performance-optimized applications.
• Integrate animations and dynamic content (Lottie, motion systems, interactive components).
• Implement and maintain authentication and authorization flows across the frontend (SSO, OAuth, SAML, role-based access).
• Work closely with backend and infrastructure engineers to integrate APIs and real-time data systems.
• Partner with product and founders to translate medical insights workflows into intuitive experiences.
• Own frontend architecture, state management, and performance strategy.
• Establish UI engineering standards: component libraries, testing practices, and design system patterns.
• Continuously improve usability, reliability, and product experience through iteration and user feedback.
• Experience working with GraphQL APIs (queries, mutations, subscriptions, caching strategies).
• Familiarity with role-based access control (RBAC), preferably using authentication providers.
• Strong understanding of core design principles (layout, typography, spacing, visual hierarchy, accessibility).

• Experience building complex, data-driven web applications.
• Strong understanding of frontend architecture, state management, and performance optimization.

• Comfort working closely with APIs, backend teams, and product stakeholders.
• Product-oriented mindset — you care about UX, clarity, and solving real user problems.
• Ability to work autonomously, own features end-to-end, and ship production-quality work.
• Startup mentality: comfortable with ambiguity, fast iteration, and high ownership.
• Experience integrating GraphQL clients (Apollo, Relay, or similar) into production applications.
• Experience designing and enforcing fine-grained permission systems on the frontend.
• Ability to translate design systems and Figma specs into clean, reusable components.

• Experience with design systems and component libraries.
• Familiarity with feature flagging, analytics, and A/B testing.
