- Integrate frontend applications with REST APIs, backend services, process mining data, workflow engines, and automation services.
- Build dashboards, reports, filters, charts, and interactive views that help users analyze process performance and automation outcomes.
- Collaborate with UX designers to convert wireframes, prototypes, and user journeys into production-ready interfaces.
- Partner with backend engineers and data teams to define API contracts, data models, and integration patterns.
- Ensure frontend applications meet enterprise standards for performance, accessibility, security, reliability, and maintainability.
- Improve application performance, responsiveness, code quality, test coverage, and developer experience.
- Participate in design reviews, code reviews, sprint planning, technical discussions, and production support.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to frontend engineering best practices across the team.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field.
