  Junior Front End Developer

  I've been involved in a range of tasks from enhancing internal software to contributing to the public-facing website. As the sole front-end developer in my team for a large period of time, I collaborated with backend developers, led design decisions, and worked alongside the product owner and scrum master to propel business outcomes forward.My recent focus has shifted to the public facing site, which receives millions of visitors each day. A key project since this transition has been the development of a new hero banner that is now being introduced across the website. This work has not only demanded technical skills but also a collaborative effort with stakeholders to ensure our work supports the broader company objectives. Show less
