A day in the life
You might start your morning reviewing a pull request from a teammate, suggesting improvements to a React component's accessibility and performance. After standup, you pick up a new feature that doesn't have a clear precedent yet, sketching out an approach with your product manager before writing code. In the afternoon, you pair with a designer to refine interaction details for an upcoming launch, then dig into an operational metric that looks off, tracing it to a rendering edge case you fix before it reaches customers.
