About the project

As a UX Engineer, you will sit at the intersection of design and development, serving as the vital link that brings aesthetic visions to life through high-fidelity code.

✅ Develop and maintain a scalable, reusable component library within our Design System to ensure UI consistency across all digital products.
✅ Build high-fidelity interactive prototypes to validate user experiences and conduct usability testing before full-scale engineering implementation.
✅ Architect clean, modular, and maintainable CSS/SASS structures and front-end logic that align with modern web standards.
✅ Optimize application performance and load times to ensure a smooth, lag-free experience for users across various devices and browsers.
✅ Implement web accessibility best practices (WCAG) to ensure our platform is inclusive and usable for people with diverse needs.
✅ Bridge the communication gap between design and engineering teams by translating design specifications into technical requirements.
✅ Refine micro-interactions and animations to enhance the overall "look and feel" and emotional engagement of the product.
✅ Conduct thorough code reviews and UI audits to maintain high quality-assurance standards for the interface.
